Following on from the announcement of the appointment of a new distributor in central Asia, , Sandvik has also announced the appointment of a new Portuguese distributor for its crushers and screens. With effect from March 6, Ascendum Group will represent Sandvik in that country where it will supply a comprehensive range of machines, along with providing full aftermarket care, spare parts and customer service.
