Palmero will be the point of contact for all Metso Outotec aggregate crushing and screening solutions, including fixed plant and mobile equipment, including Lokotrack and Nordtrack, the Nordberg NW Series wheel-mounted equipment, as well as Metso Outotec crusher wear and spare parts.

Palmero will also provide related aftermarket support and services.

“Palmero’s robust experience in the crushing & screening industry in Argentina was key when we evaluated them as a potential partner for representing our portfolio to aggregates customers,” Metso Outotec head of distribution sales for Mexico, Central & South America Benjamin Lhorente said.

“Palmero’s corporate profile is a good fit for our growth expectations in Argentina, and we are pleased to have them join our dealer network as our distributor in Argentina.”
