Sustainability is the key to a better future. At Sany, we put research and development at the core of what we do to search for new ways to make our products better. In line with Industry 4.0, we are committed to developing intelligent machines that apply the internet to the whole manufacturing process. With increasingly severe energy and environmental challenges, sustainable manufacturing options driven by artificial intelligence and cutting-edge technologies have become rather significant.

We aim to create a greener construction machinery industry with our new generation of clean-energy products and, on a wide scale, a greener future for mankind where people lead a sustainable way of life. In this aspect too, we stay close to our mission statement of quality changes the world by focusing on sustainable manufacturing methods as the demand for electrification and new, low-carbon energy rises. It is imperative to mention here that we have also started making our machines to suit the Indian terrain and, as per the local requirements, thereby consolidating our support for vocal for local.

Sustainability and automation to enhance efficiency and quality of construction

The construction industry can meet the needs of the present while preserving the needs of the future generation with the use of recycled materials, plastic wastes, self-healing asphalt, etc. At Sany, we have seen that biodiesel can replace fossil fuel as a clean energy source and our B-V biodiesel machines are a significant step towards sustainability.

We also view the electrification of the construction equipment segment as an essential update to the industry. We have started testing electric technologies for excavators, dump trucks, material handlers and forklifts advancements in technology can certainly improve the market for construction equipment and at Sany, we are taking adequate measures to power our machinery and equipment with renewable energy sources and put forward the strategy of electrification聺.

As the nation is ushering in new emission standards, we have successfully embraced the Bharat CEV Stage IV norms and upgraded and launched our motor graders and truck cranes into the market. Moreover, biodiesel as a vehicle fuel can improve fuel lubricity, increase energy security and improve air quality. Biofuels in India are of strategic importance as they augur well with the governments ongoing initiatives, such as Make in India, Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, skill development, etc. Our cranes currently being used at various locations are effective in regulating and decreasing emissions and our customer feedback has also been very encouraging. We expect the demand for such machines to surge in the days to come, hence we plan to launch more new products complying with CEV stage IV emissions in the coming months.

Since our foray into India, our focus has been to make the best quality machines that rank high in productivity and versatility, but now it is also important to make our machines smart. Our R&D team puts a lot of effort into applying telematics to machines to make them smarter and help protect our environment. We believe that the future will see a demand for electric and autonomous machines that will reduce our impact on the environment, and increase sustainable performance and efficiency.

The outlook for the construction equipment industry is largely positive, including the rental market space. The rental market demands the equipment to be reliable as well as flexible in terms of applications.

Conclusion

Being an economic driver, the infrastructure sector will naturally be the focus of our government. The good news is this momentum is likely to continue, and we will see the industry getting more and more competitive. However, the need of the hour is to become environmentally responsible. In this regard, we are extremely proud to say that SANY embraces new technology for:

Greater efficiency, increasing sustainable performance.

Reducing our impact on the environment

Building smarter machines

Creating new energy production

Delivering increased performance

The whole world is waking up to the fact that innovation and intelligent solutions can pave the way for a brighter and greener tomorrow. The construction equipment industry is certainly not far behind in this quest. If Sany has proved that quality can change the world, then it is certainly not a tall claim when we declare our company has a clear-cut strategy in place to create a safer and better tomorrow!
