Lippmann makes UK market move

Milwaukee-based concrete crushing and screening equipment maker Lippmann has announced its entrance into the United Kingdom market. The company has teamed up with two distributors in the nation: Stewart Plant Sales (SPS) and Aggregates Processing & Recycling Ltd (Agg Pro).

 will now be providing quality crushing and screening systems to aggregates suppliers throughout

“Taking this first step into the U.K. is an exciting time for Lippmann,” says Kevin Kiesgen, a vice president with the firm. “We look forward to the next 100 years in this region and know that we have partnered with two strong and well-respected specialist distributors”

SPS will be responsible for Scotland and Northern England (including Lancashire and North Yorkshire) while Agg Pro will cover Wales and all remaining English counties south of those covered by SPS.

“Agg Pro’s history of putting customers first and its extensive service department made it a clear choice as a dealer for Lippmann,” says Kiesgen. “Along with over 25 years in the crushing business, they have an extensive knowledge base for establishing the products and brand in the U.K.”

SPS has what Lippmann calls a long and rich history in the heavy equipment market in Scotland and Northern England. “We are confident it will be a smooth and successful transition bringing Lippmann crushing and screening equipment into their portfolio and to their customers,” says Kiesgen.

Among the products Lippmann intends to market in the U.K. is its new 1200j-e, which it calls a heavy-duty, mobile jaw crusher that can be powered via electric power or an onboard diesel generator. Its double-deck prescreen feeds a 48-inch by 34-inch high-inertia single toggle jaw.
