In its debut early last year, the National
Diesel Dirt & Turf Expo attracted over
30,000 visitors, generated a huge
volume of sales and entertained families
throughout the three days of the Expo,
Event organiser, Steve Zivkovich said.
“As an industry-funded and managed
event, exhibitors have benefited from
affordable exhibition spaces, while a well
considered mix of family entertainment,
attractions, good quality food, free entry
and ample parking encouraged people
to stay and explore the many equipment
innovations on display,” Steve said.

its GeoGrid, a lightweight HDPE ground
protection and reinforcement system
which provides tough and durable
surfaces for car parks, access roads and
construction sites.
Tecpro will be showing its V12S Dust
Cannon, designed and manufactured
in Italy. The V12S is a silent dust
suppression solution that’s sufficiently
quiet to use in city demolition sites and
durable enough to use in mining and
materials handling applications.
The V12S features centrally located
nozzles with ceramic inserts which
generate a highly effective fine mist to
bind dust particles at their source. In
windy conditions, the location of the
nozzles within the jet stream protects the
droplets from being blown off course.
The V12 Silent Dust Cannon boasts
67dB-55dB at 20m (a typical lawnmower
measures 90dB).
There will be operators’ challenges
where big prize money and trophies may
be won; innovative machinery and the
chance to chat to the people behind the
design of the different machines, systems
and services on offer.
