This month it welcomed delegates from Nikko Co Ltd (Tokyo) to its manufacturing facility in Grantham, United Kingdom.

The agreement between the two companies gives Nikko exclusive distribution of the full range of Red Rhino mini crushing and screening equipment into Japan.

The first shipment of the RR 7000+ and RR4000 Mobile crushers has taken place. The second order of the RR3000 Electric along with two RR2000 Static Crushers and the RR Mobile Screener are now in production.

These will be shipped out by the end of October.

Nikko is investing heavily in its recycling business. Alongside its asphalt, concrete and recycling plants it sees the Red Rhino products as “complimentary value” to its established larger crushing and screening distribution.
