Greater Noida, December 19, 2014: CASE New Holland Construction Equipment India (CASE India) received the prestigious Best Seller Award for its Compaction Equipment from Equipment India, India's first and only infrastructure equipment magazine since its inception in 2008. The award ceremony was held under the aegis of bC India, the International Trade Fair for Construction Machinery, Mining Machines and Construction Vehicles in Greater Noida on 15th of December 2014.

The most prestigious recognition in Indian construction equipment industry, the Equipment India Awards are organised by "ASAPP Media Information Group", a 17-year-old multinational B2B media information group and publisher of Equipment India, Construction World and other publications, including Industrial Finder and Automotive Products Finder.

CASE's acknowledgement in this product category confirms its market leadership position in the road construction equipment sector. This achievement has been validated by Off- Highway Research, ASAPP media's knowledge partner, and vetted by a panel of industry experts.

"It's an honour and I take the immense pleasure in receiving another nationally recognized mark of Best Seller in Compaction Equipment Segment. It is a testimonial to CASE's core philosophy of putting the customer first and high proficiency. Also it is an acknowledgment of the hard work of the many dedicated and skilled CASE employees who helped to position CASE as the market-leader in Compactor range," commented Abhijit Gupta, Managing Director, CASE India, at the ceremony.

Last year CASE launched the 1107 DX Vibratory Soil Compactor, which strengthened the compactor line-up that also comprises the upgraded 752 - Tandem Vibratory Compactor and the smaller 450 DX - Mini Tandem Vibratory Compactors. The 1107DX is the result of research and development carried out together with customers, operators and civil engineers' feedbacks.

The 1107DX presents several technological advancements. It is powered with a water cooled engine, which results in a substantial temperature reduction and benefits customers with the engine's longer life and lower fuel consumption. The rotating operator's seat improves operator visibility and provides a superior operator platform with enhanced safety features. This is coupled with the tiltable engine hood, which opens with just a click of a button for easy servicing. 1107DX delivers everything the industry would expect from the market leader of the compactor segment in India.

With more than 170 year of heritage, CASE Construction Equipment takes pride in providing the most robust, reliable and innovative machines to meet its customers' mechanization needs. CASE further strengthened its number one position in the Indian Compactor segment, which it has held for more than two decades, by its efforts in upgrading and renewing its compactor line-up in 2013 and 2014. CASE strongly focuses on supporting its customer's businesses and is committed to reducing its machines' operational cost.
