Equipment distributor CEA will distribute Atlas Copco generators, portable air compressors and lighting towers under the CEA banner.

CEA is the exclusive distributor of JCB construction and agricultural machinery as well as Dynapac compaction and paving equipment. According to Hylton Taylor, CEO of CEA, the rebrand consolidates the existing brands by making Atlas Copco part of the CEA brand.

"Our mission is one of continuous growth and expansion with CEA as a market-leading distributor of globally recognised equipment brands, dedicated to enhancing our service and product offerings for customers in the rental, construction, mining and agricultural industries," says Taylor.

"Customers of Redstar Equipment ... will continue to receive the same quality service, after-sales support and market-leading Atlas Copco products. The only difference they will notice is the change from Redstar to the Atlas CEA brand. Under one brand, we are in a better position to manage the marketing, distribution and overall servicing of all our suppliers' equipment and give our customers clarity on which entity they are dealing with. This initiative will bring greater recognition to the CEA name and, ultimately, we expect will deliver long-term benefits to our dealers, branches and customers," he adds.

Atlas CEA will continue to operate out of its four dedicated branches and will continue to expand its dealer network.

Although day-to-day operations of the new division will be unchanged, the Sydney CEA dealership is relocating to a new $27 million state-of-the-art facility in Horningsea Park later this year.

Forkliftaction's JOB MARKET

It’s the year 2000. You’re in front of a boxy beige desktop waiting for the screeching ramblings of your dial-up to reach its finale. You go to Yahoo!, MSN, or maybe AOL, and start the mind-numbing process of finding your very specific needle in the digital haystack. And with web pages loading one image at a time, patience isn’t just a virtue – it’s a requirement!

As clumsy as this early iteration seems now, this technology was the great enabler that allowed Forkliftaction to connect to the industry across the globe.  

To everyone who has connected with Forkliftaction in the past 25 years, thank you for your contribution to our success! We feel deeply touched by your words of encouragement.
