CASE Construction Equipment has received the
prestigious Good Design® Award for its methane-powered wheel loader
concept from the Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and
Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and
Urban Studies
London, December 18, 2019
CASE Construction Equipment, a brand of CNH
Industrial N.V. (NYSE: CNHI / MI: CNHI), received the award from a
jury composed of renowned international design professionals,
leading industry specialists and design journalists. The
methane-powered wheel loader, first unveiled in April 2019 at
BAUMA, the world’s largest construction trade fair in Munich,
Germany was chosen for its vision of the future of construction as
a sustainable, connected and technologically advanced industry. As
a winner of the award, ProjectTETRA will be featured in the Good
Design Yearbook for 2019-2020.
The CASE wheel loader concept, jointly developed
by the CASE engineering and CNH Industrial international design
teams, reimagines wheel loader design. It demonstrates the
viability of alternative fuels in construction equipment and the
feasibility of using fuel generated from waste products and
renewable sources. It is powered by a proven methane engine,
produced by sister brand FPT Industrial, that delivers the same
performance as its diesel equivalent. The innovative design
includes cutting-edge styling and an advanced operator environment
that makes extensive use of touchscreen and voice control
technologies. The concept also offers innovative safety features
that use biometric technologies and an obstacle detection system
derived from CNH Industrial’s autonomous vehicle research and
development programme.
The CASE methane-powered wheel loader concept
has been tested in real-world construction environments,
demonstrating its feasibility and proving its business case in
terms of sustainability, reduced overall Total Cost of Ownership
and operational viability.
