Enviro Services will represent the Terramac product line in northern Louisiana. “Enviro Services is dedicated to providing their customers with superi- or services and quality equipment,” said Andrew Konopka, president of Terramac. “Their expertise in environ- mental reclamation for the pipeline industry is a natural fit for Terramac units. We’re excited to have them join our growing network.” Enviro Services will offer Terramac’s versatile crawler carriers to deliver the pipeline industry with cus- tomized environmental control and land restoration equipment. In addition to Terramac’s three standard options — convertible dump-to-flat beds, rock dump beds and flatbeds — Enviro Services will offer environmental reclamation attachments such as hydroseeders, vacuum excavators and straw blowers. Customers of Enviro Services appreciate Terramac carriers for their unique front and rear bolt on connection system, which allows sup- port equipment to be easily inter- changed, as well as their ability to pro- vide low ground pressure necessary for sensitive environmental work. “Many of our customers begin their projects with a flatbed and then halfway-through have a need for a dump bed to carry heavier material,” said Chris Holomon, general manager of Enviro Services. “Terramac’s units are exceptionally versatile as they serve both purposes and more due to their compatibility with various auxil- iary options. And at full carrying capacity, the units continue to conquer rugged terrain and travel to remote job- sites with minimal impact on the ground. We’re confident our customers will see the value in Terramac crawler carriers as we do.” “Terramac is committed to provid- ing the best full service, support and parts availability for its innovative and growing product line,” said Trey Towns, co-owner of Enviro Services. “We’re excited to offer Terramac crawler carriers to our customers and we look forward to a lasting partner- ship.” For more information on Enviro Services, call 318/368-9111 or visit www.enviroservicesllc.com.
