One of the major changes in the compact equipment sector in the Middle East is the significant growth in the compact track loader market in the region, according to Bobcat

The growth is being driven by increasing demand among contractors for safe, stable and high performing machines that can be combined with a wide range of attachments that help them to expand the amount and type of work they can carry out with the same loaders.

Since 2017, Bobcat has increased its share of the market, with sales of compact track loaders more than quadrupling in the same period.

Ernesto Anton, district manager Middle East for Doosan Bobcat EMEA, said: ?This growth is due to the unique characteristics of compact track loaders as tool carriers and the wide array of attachments that they can work with.

?We sell an expanding array of attachments to Middle East customers for both skid-steer and compact track loaders depending on the particular application, including forestry cutters, planers, wheel saws and sand cleaners. Landscaping is a much more important application in the area and customers are also looking for the high lift capacity offered by our track loaders.?
