Way Industries upgrades its skid steer loaders

Way Industries of Krupina, Slovakia, has a rapidly growing customer base using its equipment in Europe, Russia, Asia, Africa and North and South America. Focused on delivering high quality products, Way Industries seeks to work with like-minded suppliers, to ensure both customer retention and growth.

They have used Perkins® 854 Series engines in their Locust branded range of skid steer loaders since 2016 and have recently upgraded their lineup to offer EU Stage V machines powered by three engines from the Perkins® Syncro range—the 403J-E17T, the 404J-E22T and the 904J-E28T.

Based on the company’s popular UNC 060 skid steer loader introduced in 1981, the Locust range of L753, L903, L1203 and L1203 Telespeed skid steer loaders are 100 percent powered by Perkins’ 45- and 55 kW engines. The range includes options that meet Stage V and lesser regulated emissions standards equivalent to Stage IIIA in other territories using the 404D-22/T and 904D-E28T engines.

Over the years Way Industries has built a collaborative relationship with Perkins and its distributor, Secodi.

“From the first installation through to the final approval process we’ve worked together to install the compact and powerful 403 and 404 engine models, as well as the new 2.8 litre Perkins Syncro engine, all at Stage V and Stage IIIA equivalent emission standards,” says Jakub Polievka, director of sales at Way Industries.

This successful collaboration meant the Locust brand was one of the first to bring its Stage V powered skid steer loaders to market.
