Ponsse wins Swedish Steel Prize 2015
Ponsse is the winner of this year’s international Swedish Steel Prize. The prize was awarded for the new generation of harvester, the Scorpion, which utilises the properties of high-strength steel.“Ponsse has not only significantly improved operator ergonomics, but also enhanced functionality and safety, and increased productivity with this new design,” says Gregoire Parenty, chairman of the jury and Executive Vice President and Head of Market Development SSAB.Since the 1980s, harvesters have remained pretty much the same. They have traditional designs that focus primarily on function.
