Crushing & Conveying

Continental Crushing & Conveying has announced that its integration with Joy Mining Machinery will begin immediately. Joy completed the acquisition of N.E.S. Investment Co. and its subsidiary, Continental Global Group Inc, a world leader in conveyor systems for bulk material handling in mining and industrial applications, in February 2007.

Mike Sutherlin, president and CEO of Joy Global said, “We have always intended that crushers and conveyors would become seamless extensions of our P&H and Joy Mining product lines, and therefore sold and supported just as any other product in these divisions.”

P&H will become the exclusive dealer for all surface mining and industrial applications, including the management of Continental’s current distributors. Ted Doheny, president of Joy Mining Machinery, will be responsible for all aspects of the crushing and conveying business.

Mr Doheny explained: “This integration is a critical step in the long-term achievement and financial contribution of the crushing and conveying products, and is vital to Joy Global’s success as a full systems supplier.”
