CRUSHING, screening and conveying equipment manufacturer Finlay has announced its pride in supplying equipment in conjunction with Kurimoto, its Japanese distributor, to support the rebuilding of Ukraine’s infrastructure following the conflict with Russia.

Finlay explained the demand for high-quality aggregates and construction materials has surged as the country undertakes extensive rebuilding efforts. A fleet of Finlay crushers and screeners are operating in several locations across Ukraine to process concrete and construction debris. By processing and reclaiming valuable material on site, the Finlay machines are helping accelerate the restoration of Ukraine’s infrastructure and ensuring reconstruction efforts are ‘efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally sustainable’.

“We are incredibly proud to see Finlay machines playing a crucial part in helping Ukraine rebuild its nation,” said Martin Conway, global sales & marketing director for Finlay. “The strength and resilience shown by the Ukrainian people in the face of such adversity is truly inspiring.

“At Finlay, we are committed to assisting Ukraine in its recovery. By supplying and supporting our crushers and screeners operating throughout Ukraine, we are not only helping to rebuild critical infrastructure but also laying the groundwork for a brighter future for the Ukrainian people.”

Due to travel restrictions for entering and exiting Ukraine, online training was provided by the Finlay Training Academy to operators on the ground. To supplement the digital training, Kurimoto also organised in-person training facilitated by Ukraine-based contractor, Euromash, who were employed to deliver initial set up, training, and commissioning of machines.

“The Finlay Training Academy tailored and delivered exceptional online training to the operators of the machines based in Ukraine,” said Nakamura Mas of Kurimoto. “This training has ensured that the team of operators are well versed on the efficient operation and maintenance of the machines, even in such challenging conditions.

“We are honoured to have collaborated with Finlay in supplying critical crushing and screening equipment to support Ukraine as the country forges a path toward a hopeful and resilient future.”
