Chicago Pneumatic, a global construction equipment manufacturer, said it has secured a major contract from a Kuwaiti company for the supply of 100 CPLT V15 light towers for a key oil and gas project.

The order for the tough and efficient light towers was secured through its authorised distributor General Transportation & Equipment Company (GTE), said the company in a statement.

GTE clinched the deal after taking part in a tender process in which three other suppliers were involved.

These CPLT V15 light towers will provide crucial illumination for an oil and gas construction project located in a remote area of Kuwait’s desert, the statement added.
 
Ejazul Hassan, the equipment sales manager for GTE, said: "We put forward the CPLT V15 because it is an ideal choice for projects requiring a large fleet of light towers. During the live demonstration, our client quickly realised the metal halide option would provide them with a combination of durability, easy maintenance and outstanding value for money."
 
Throughout the demonstration, the light tower’s manoeuvrability also impressed the technical team, observed Hassan.

“Its compact and lightweight design makes it really easy to move around,” said Hassan. “It’s also very safe to transport between different job sites, as the light tower can be moved with the mast in a vertical position,” he stated.

For added protection, the CPLT V15 comes equipped with four heavy-duty stabilisers and a level indicator, he added.
 
Chicago Pneumatic said this was the largest order ever for its CPLT V15 light towers in the Middle East.

Lauding GTE for further establishing the brand in Kuwait, Amjad Fallatah, the regional product manager for Chicago Pneumatic Construction Equipment in the Middle East, said: "We are delighted to have them as a partner because they’re not only an ambitious company, but also closely share our values and objectives when it comes to delivering high quality products and customer service."
 
"The CLPT V15 features a tough polyethylene canopy that protects vital internal components. This ensures the light tower operates at peak performance and has an optimised lifespan while working in harsh conditions," noted Fallatah.
