WASHINGTON, May 12, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) is bringing its iconic
yellow iron to the Celebration of Construction on the National Mall
to showcase innovative products, technology and services helping
its customers build the nation's – and the world's –
infrastructure. Caterpillar customers construct the roads, bridges,
seaports and runways that connect people to jobs, opportunities and
one another.
"This celebration provides an opportunity to showcase the
importance of infrastructure investment," said Caterpillar
Construction Industries Group President Tony Fassino. "We have a nearly 100-year legacy
of providing products and services that continually improve the
quality of life and the environment by helping our customers
fulfill society's need for infrastructure, including shelter, clean
water, transportation and reliable energy."
Caterpillar offers multiple solutions made to match its
customers' work, some of which are on display at Caterpillar's
exhibit at the Celebration of Construction on the National
Mall:
- The Cat® 301.9 battery electric mini excavator prototype is one
of four construction industry products Caterpillar is developing to
help support its customers' climate-related objectives.
- The Cat® 299D3 compact track loader is a versatile machine on a
jobsite – it digs, grades, moves material, runs work tools and
loads.
- The Cat® 966 XE wheel loader delivers increased fuel efficiency
and premium performance with simple-to-use standard technologies to
boost operator efficiencies and lower maintenance costs.
- The Cat® C9 engine helps deliver low operating costs,
reliability and durability. The remanufactured Cat C9 engine
highlights our commitment to sustainability by offering Cat® Reman
products that provide like-new performance and reliability at
fraction-of-new costs when returning the used core.
