The important certification allows the US-headquartered company’s business units in Germany and Russia to offer the firm’s extensive product family to the Customs Union (Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan) and assures that the equipment is compliant with the EAC’s strict safety and quality standards. This will provide companies in the region with safe and efficient components for improving productivity, controlling fugitive material and clearing accumulation in chutes, silos, kilns and ductwork in a variety of material handling applications such as mining, coal, cement, biomass, aggregate and fly ash.
The EAC approval is in accordance with the February 2013 agreement between the member states of the Customs Union that unified certification requirements for machinery and equipment.
Oleg Meister, Martin Engineering Russian division branch manager, said: “The EAC Mark of Conformity is essential in order to sell and install bulk material handling components in the three member countries. It will be instrumental in assuring ready availability and reasonable lead times.”
