Enabling Safe Work Practices and Product Quality

 

Safety for our end users is priority one. Our distributors, customers, and end users trust us to manufacture products that help end users perform their jobs safely and operate jobsites more efficiently and sustainably, reducing risks and improving outcomes.


Our Genie products provide safe ways to work at height. Our scissor and boom lifts, also known as MEWPs, offer significant advantages over ladders and scaffolding in terms of safety, access, and productivity. Our Utilities trucks support the safe work practices of our customers and utilities crews in the field. And, our Materials Processing (MP) equipment is designed for safe operations in all applications the equipment supports, including crushing, screening, material handling, and more.

 

We believe quality and safety go hand in hand, and part of our commitment to protecting our customers and end users is compliance with quality and safety regulations. Terex products are designed and manufactured in compliance with the applicable standards and regulations.

Environmental Stewardship Through Product Solutions


Our products and offerings enable our customers to reduce emissions, minimize waste, and conserve resources. Our approach centers on several key solutions, including alternative power offerings, recycling systems, and equipment that enables sustainable applications. By innovating our product lines to meet customer demand for sustainable solutions, our customers’ sustainability and business goals are met, and we make a positive impact on the planet.

Alternative Power

Terex is proud to be a global leader in the shift to alternative power offerings. The demand for low-emission, quieter equipment has increased, and we are committed to expanding the availability of electric, hybrid, and alternative power solutions and technology across the Terex product portfolio to meet the demand.

Electric Vehicles

Terex is proud to be a leader in electric vehicles (EVs). In 2022, Terex was the first-to-market with an all-electric utility bucket truck. We partnered with Navistar using their International eMV electric chassis, and Viatec using their SmartPTO technology, to offer a noise- and emission-free truck. In 2023, Terex Advance followed suit, introducing a zero-emission mini-concrete mixer truck (using the same technology) to the market.

Genie Lithium-ion Battery

In October 2022, Genie introduced a
lithium-ion battery for its GS slab scissor lifts. Our lithium-ion battery has an expected lifespan of approximately 10
years, delivering the benefits of electric power while reducing one of the biggest ongoing maintenance requirements for electric lift owners — battery replacement.

Recycling and Circular Economy

Terex is continuing to increase its product offerings that recycle and reuse materials. This includes machines that process forestry waste, scrap steel, demolition debris, and more, giving material a new life rather than sending it to landfills or incinerators.

Terex Recycling Systems

In March 2023, Terex Recycling Systems (TRS) completed an installation at a UK recycling and waste management company. The installation incorporated advanced mechanical separation to increase the customer’s processing capacity and recover products of a higher purity than what was previously achieved, while not adding to manual labor requirements.

Other Sustainable Applications

Genie lifts and telehandlers play a key role in solar roof installations and wind farm maintenance projects, making tasks like blade cleaning, inspections, and repairs more efficient.
Our Materials Processing equipment assists in various sustainable applications, such as preventing coastal land erosion. For a sea defense project, a customer turned to MDS to provide them with a machine that was capable of producing rip rap rock and other material used to protect shoreline structures against land erosion. Our MDS M515 was perfect for the job due to its sizable feeder handling large rocks that traditional trommel screens cannot process.
Traditional quarries are often located a significant distance from where the material will be used. In Europe, our Company is playing a key role in supporting urban quarries, which are typically situated within the perimeter of a city. We locate our Terex Washing Systems in proximity to the urban quarry, reducing transportation requirements, carbon emissions, and cost.
Our mobile crushers, screens, and conveyors process raw materials into sorted, usable aggregates on-site, reducing transportation and lowering our customers’ carbon footprint.
