LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwire - June 10, 2008) - AmeraMex International, Inc. (PINKSHEETS : AMMX ), a provider of heavy equipment to shipping, construction, logging and
mining companies, today announced that it received $525,000 order for
Taylor Machine Works' ergonomically designed break-bulk material handlers.
The TX Series/24-Inch Load Center has an 18-ton capacity, and is known for
its ruggedness and reliability. Destined for one of the largest ports in
the U.S., the break-bulk handlers will be delivered in the next few weeks.
"The container shipping industry is experiencing a current annual growth
run rate of 4 to 7 percent and is expected to increase with the weakened
U.S. dollar," commented AmeraMex CEO Lee Hamre. "With this growth comes
increased dockside carbon emissions that are reduced by replacing older
equipment with new EPA Tier lll compliant equipment. Our customers are
working on programs to replace all of their container handlers and
break-bulk equipment with engines over 100HP by 2012."
Transferring cargo in an efficient and timely manner is a key factor for
all logistics support companies. Material handlers provided by AmeraMex
(large capacity fork lifts) streamline what is a time consuming and labor
intensive effort by enabling the stevedores or longshoremen to securely
move break-bulk materials (partial containers and pallets) into storage or
from one mode of transport to another.
