With the growing demand today, Duromac expects 10-15% yearly growth over next five years. Duromc proudly had launched the 100th unit Bucher Schoerling road sweeper for the Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur on April 10 2014. The launching ceremony of the 100th Duromac Cityfant 60 road sweeper was also attended by the Swiss ambassador to Malaysia, H.E Dr. Rolf Lenz, together with Mr. Thomas Dubach, Managing Director, Bucher Schoerling AG.
Holding 80% of the market share in Malaysia is enough to prove how strong they are in this industry segment and the management is confident of maintaining its pole position with the introduction of new innovative products, equipment and services in the near future.
Future Step
“Being in a highly niche industry, this new milestone marks yet another historic moment for us. We take even greater pride today for the recognition of our capabilities by Bucher Schoerling. Not only for conforming to the stringent global quality standards, but also for our commitment in offering cost-efficient products and services to both our existing and future customers,” said Mr Arul Das, Managing Director.
Malaysia Market
Duromac found Malaysia's market to be an advanced one, suitable for their expanding business. The business is expanding to cater to the worldwide market. The trucks used as a basis for the road sweepers are mainly UD trucks. According to Mr Arus Das, UD Trucks have been supporting the company since the day one. In Malaysia, UD trucks are distributed by TCIE.
Duromac has been a partner of Bucher Schoerling since 1996, which is a division of Switzerland’s Bucher Group. Bucher Schoerling is the world’s leading manufacturer of municipal vehicles for efficient surface cleaning in public and private areas.
“As an international company, we will try to work together as partner because we have the passion to drive this field forward,” said Mr Arul Das.
The company is also exploring with Bucher Schoerling the possibility of introducing vehicles that operate on compressed natural gas (CNG) for a greener environment.
