Mannai Trading Company, through its Heavy Equipment Division, announced the successful delivery of 19 units of Elgin Whirlwind Sweeper street sweeping equipment to Qatar’s Ministry of Municipal and Urban Planning (MED) at the MED premises in Abu Hamour.
This delivery was one of several batches of heavy equipment that the Ministry ordered from Mannai HED, and the machines are dedicated to be put to work in various parts of the country to keep the roads and streets clean and safe.
Commenting about this development, Hichem Said, the sales manager of Mannai HED, said: “Our relationship with the MED goes back to many decades. We have always taken pride in supplying much of the ministry’s heavy equipment requirements and in providing top notch products and after-sales service, which was the key success factor to maintain this good relationship.”
The Elgin Whirlwind is a benchmark-setting truck mounted vacuum sweeper that has proved itself in the field with outstanding quality and performance. This Sweeper offers a high pick-up performance and flexibility that has become a world standard. With its robust construction and unique extending nozzle, it is perfectly suited for heavy duty application in terms of general street sweeping and catch basin cleaning.
The machine combines a proven low maintenance design with an extra-wide sweeping path, and a short wheelbase.
