Nordtrack™ crushing and screening product range for the aggregates industry, specifically targeting the general contractors, was launched in October 2019. The new Nordtrack offering consists of 19 products to complement Metso's mobile crushing and screening solutions.

The new Nordtrack products are ideal for general contractors, thanks to their compact size and high performance, combined with an attractive price point. Nordtracks have standard designs for off-the-shelf availability, plug-and-play features and they can utilize the extensive Metso support network, making them ideal for a variety of applications like recycling, demolition, and the processing of sand and gravel.

"The sales of Metso's Nordtrack products have taken off as expected, and our customers have appreciated the way we meet the needs of different customer segments with this new offering. Metso has sold more than 50 units to date, about half of them to North America. Currently Metso is developing the range further, and new features are still expected in 2020," says Vesa Tuloisela, Director of Metso's Nordtrack Product Offering in the Aggregates Business Area.

The new Nordtrack offering and Metso's iconic Lokotracks complement each other, making Metso a leader in the growing aggregates contractor segment.
