According to Igor Semenov, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of ARMZ Mining Machinery, LLC, «This deal is the first important step in developing the foreign market activities and creating a medium-term order portfolio. Today, we are also focused on expanding the model line of mining machinery manufactured under the brand of ARGO in Krasnokamensk. This year, we plan to invest in development and production of load-haul-dumpers with a carrying capacity of 3.5 tons, and in 2021, 10 and 14 tons.»

The machines meet the high requirements of international standards and have no negative impact on the environment.
