Komatsu backing industry as Gold sponsor of Diesel, Dirt & Turf Expo

Komatsu is back again for another year as the Gold sponsor of the Diesel Dirt and Turf Expo, showcasing a large range of their machinery and technology solutions across the three-day event.

Located at Stand B1 on the aptly named Komatsu Street, Komatsu will have one of the expo’s largest displays of machinery and technology — featuring everything from excavators and wheel loaders to dozers.

Brennan Garbutt, Komatsu’s Sales Manager - Central Region, says the annual expo is a highlight on their calendar, and the team is excited to meet and connect with customers and colleagues across the construction, earthmoving and utilities sectors.

“We’re proud to support events like this because they give us a chance to connect directly with the people who keep these important sectors moving.

People gathered at a Komatsu equipment exhibition with multiple yellow excavators displayed under a large tent bearing the Komatsu logo.

“We’ve selected machines for display that will suit a wide range of customers – from the small contractor looking for a mini excavator, to established businesses wanting all the latest technology to drive efficiency, accuracy and precision – we’ve got it all,” Brennan says.

In the demo area at Diesel, Dirt & Turf, Komatsu will showcase three excavators in action: a PC228USLC-11, a PC290LCi, with Intelligent Machine Control, and a nimble PC18.

Komatsu’s Intelligent Machine Control (iMC) uses GPS and sensors to guide the machine’s movements, helping operators dig, grade, and finish jobs faster and more accurately. It automatically adjusts the bucket and boom to prevent over-digging, making the work cleaner and reducing the need to fix mistakes.

“We always get people enquiring about the technology that comes with our machinery, so having the two excavators there for demo will really help attendees get an idea of what exactly our technology can deliver.

“We’re excited for another big Diesel, Dirt and Turf for 2025, so make sure you come down and chat to the team about how our Komatsu New, Used, Rental and Technology solutions can support your business, including our parts, finance and aftermarket support,” Brennan says.
