Anticipation high for Avant visit in Finland

Tomorrow the Digger Man Blog is back on the road returning to Finland some two years since our last visit to this amazing country. This time our attention turns to specialist multi-functional compact loader manufacturer Avant Techno Oy as they show us what new product’s they will be launching at Bauma in Munich this coming April.

Anticipation high for Avant visit in Finland
This will be my first visit to Avant Techno Oy and I am looking forward to what they are going to be showing us. As I understand it, we are set to see examples of the latest 800 Series of machines, Avant’s largest models which will offer more lift capacity, increased lift height and more power. In contrast to last weeks visit to Malaga I am expecting to experience very different temperatures, but it is sure to be a great trip and the friendly Finns always know how to put on a warm welcome! Its been a while since we covered any Avant products on the blog, I believe the last time was back in 2017 when we reported on the 635 model which was painted in stunning pink livery and raffled off for the Cancer Charity by BPMS the dealer in the South of England, so I’m looking forward to getting up close and personal with these multi-functional machines that can run a wide range of attachments, working in an equally wide range of applications. My friends in Finland tell me there has been plenty of snow recently, but I’m sure it won’t cause too many problems for the guys and girls at Avant!
Lookout for social media updates throughout the day (Thursday) on our regular platforms, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Linkedin. I will also be taking the opportunity to visit some other contractors while I am over there later in the week, thanks to our friends at Koneporssi magazine, "Kiitos"
