McConnel goes global

McConnel's growing international reputation for power arm technology will draw the biggest attendance yet for the award-winning British manufacturer's annual open days from 25 – 29 February 2008.

Agricultural, highways, forestry and landscape specialists, dealers and customers from more than 20 countries across Europe and as far as the United States, Canada and Asia will get an early preview of McConnel's latest technology and a first glimpse of the Shropshire manufacturer's new, mid-range, power arm which will be launched during the week.

Visitors also get the chance to put new machinery to the test on a working demonstration site. According to McConnel Marketing Manager Wayne Brown, this year's event will be the biggest since the 80-year-old company staged its first open days more than a decade ago.
