AXION Structural Innovations to Co-Locate with DICA at ConExpo-Con/Agg
February 25, 2020 (Guthrie Center, Iowa) Axion Structral Innovations and DICA announce plans to co-locate in multiple booth locations at Conexpo-Con/Agg. AXION’s STRUXURE® Composite Crane Mats and Heavy-Duty Access Mats will be on display alongside DICA’s SafetyTech® Outrigger Pads, FiberMax® Crane Pads, and ProStack® Cribbing Blocks at ConExpo-Con/Agg, to be held March 10-14 in Las Vegas.
In addition to co-locating at Conexpo, DICA and AXION have agreed to establish a strategic partnership to bring engineered matting products to crane users in the heavy lift market. The companies’ values and products share common benefits for users. Each company uses the highest quality engineered materials that provide benefits over traditional wood products. The companies’ engineered materials produce reliable and consistent performance properties in products that have an extremely long life.
“AXION has world class engineering, product development, and manufacturing capabilities. They have a proven track record in the highly regulated railroad industry and have developed excellent products for building access roads, crane work platforms, and laydown yards,” said Kris Koberg, CEO of DICA. “AXION’s Construction and Heavy-Duty Mats complement DICA’s product line, and our vision to provide engineered foundation solutions for all equipment.”
Allen Kronstadt, AXION’s Executive Chairman, said: “DICA impressed us with its comprehensive and engineered product line, technical leadership in the industry, brand strength, and overall integrity. By providing performance-driven products that outlast and outperform wood alternatives, both companies are solving safety problems in areas where wood products perform inconsistently. DICA and AXION are a natural fit and complement each other.”
