CONEXPO-CON/AGG PRODUCT REVIEW It takes more than paint to make it Volvo See for yourself at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2008. Volvo paving, milling and compaction equipment isn’t beige anymore. It’s yellow. It’s the same equipment you’ve trusted for so many years, but it’s better because it takes more than paint to make it Volvo. Volvo Construction Equipment is different. It’s designed, built and supported in a different way. That difference comes from an engineering heritage of over 175 years. A heritage of thinking first about the people who actually use the machines. About how to help them be safer, more comfortable, more productive. About the environment we all share. People around the world are proud to use Volvo. And we’re proud of what makes Volvo different – MORE CARE. BUILT IN. And that’s what we’ve done with this great line of paving, milling and compaction equipment. Today it’s Volvo, and when you’ve got a road to build, it’s ready. See it for yourself in Booth G-134.
