Units on test at the Handler plant

The Xuzhou based company which became independent after it split away from XCMG in 2005 has focused its efforts on producing and selling aerial work platforms. The company which is led by Mr D. Ping recently floated on the local stock exchange.

Since taking on the CTE line in 2005 Handler now sells over 100 Zed, Bizzocchi and Traccess machines a year, which given the small size of the market gives CTE a significant market share.
