history
Beginnings
Terex was originally a construction machinery brand created by General Motors (GM) . The brand was introduced in 1970 and represents a suitcase word from the Latin terms “terra” (earth) and “rex” (king). During the economic recession in the 1980s, GM sold Terex to the German IBH Holding in 1981 . After the IBH bankruptcy, Terex reverted to GM in 1983. 1987 Koehring was taken over. In 1991 the company was listed on the NYSE. In the following year, the forklift manufacturer Clark Material Handling Company (CMHC) was taken over by the Clark Equipment Company . CMHC was sold again in 1996. The buyer was the management of CMHC.
expansion
In 1999 Terex bought Powerscreen, a manufacturer of crushing and screening systems . In 2001 the backhoe loader manufacturer Fermec was taken over from competitor CNH Global .
With the acquisition of Demag construction crane, the company is the manufacturer of the CC 8800-Twin, the most powerful crawler crane in the world. The new development of the AC 1000-9 (presented at Bauma 2010), the world's most powerful telescopic crane, which can be moved with a telescopic boom within the statutory axle load limit of 12 t, also came from Terex Demag .
Concentration on building construction
In 2011, Terex also acquired the majority in Demag Cranes , the manufacturer of industrial cranes . In contrast, the dump truck business was sold in 2014. The company now called Terex Trucks became the property of Volvo .
On August 11, 2015, Terex announced that it would merge with the Finnish crane manufacturer Konecranes . Technically speaking, Konecranes takes over Terex. For each Terex share , shareholders should receive 0.8 Konecranes shares. The new company will trade as Konecranes Terex , be based in Hyvinkää , Finland , generate $ 10 billion in annual sales and employ 32,000 people. The combined company's shares will be listed on Nasdaq Helsinki and the New York Stock Exchange . Terex CEO John L. Garrison Jr. is set to lead the new company, while current Konecranes Chairman Stig Gustavson remains at the new company. On 26 January 2016, the Chinese construction machinery manufacturer announced Zoomlion Heavy Industries an unsolicited offer 30 dollars per share, or a total of 3.3 billion US dollars from Terex. This is more than double the Terex closing price the previous day. As announced by Zoomlion on February 17, 2016, 60 percent of this is to be financed from a bank debt. A little later, Terex announced that it would stop the merger with Konecranes or the associated integration work for the time being.
In 2016, Terex sold its European compact machine business, including the Crailsheim site, to Yanmar for USD 60 million . At the end of 2016, it was also decided to sell the English subsidiary, which manufactures backhoe loaders, for example, to Mecalac .
