Construction of a bike park in the Swiss Alps – with zero exhaust emissions

No cars, just pure nature. The Aletsch Arena is an area located in the Swiss Alps. Here Velosolutions, a company with many years of experience in trail design, is developing a three-kilometer-long bike park. Due to the special regulations regarding exhaust emissions, the requirements for construction machinery and equipment are equally strict. And this is where Wacker Neuson’s zero emission portfolio comes into play.

Successful tunnel restoration with Dual View Dumpers

Successful tunnel restoration with Dual View Dumpers

Little space – much to do: The restoration of the Karawanken Tunnel is more than challenging.

2 stroke rammers by Wacker Neuson: lowest overall emissions on the market

2 stroke rammers by Wacker Neuson: lowest overall emissions on the market

Compaction machines have a long tradition at Wacker Neuson. This tradition has its beginning in the year 1930, as Hermann Wacker invents the first electric vibratory rammer. Then, in the fifties, the first vibratory rammer, with an internal combustion engine, makes its entrance – again, a revolution in the industry, as now, autonomous working is possible independent of power cables. The success of the light and flexible compaction machine keeps going. In the meantime, Wacker Neuson offers a wide portfolio of a variety of vibratory rammer models – with the choice of gasoline, diesel or battery drive. This also includes low-emission 2 stroke rammers.
