LAS VEGAS, March 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- LiuGong (000528.SZ) presented 13 machines across multiple product lines at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 under the theme "Tough Customers. Tough Equipment," covering applications from urban construction to quarrying, mining, and large-scale infrastructure projects.
Electric Solutions for Lower Operating Costs
Among the featured machines were the zero-emission 922FE excavator, 870HE & 820TE wheel loaders, representing LiuGong's expanding electric portfolio in the American market. These machines offer more than 40% lower operating costs through reduced wear parts, fluids and filters, and simplified maintenance. Their quiet operation and instant torque make them suitable for urban construction, demolition, and emissions-sensitive public sector projects.
LiuGong electric equipment now operates in over 60 countries, with cumulative sales exceeding 60,000 units.
Diesel Equipment for High-Production Applications
For heavy-duty applications, LiuGong showcased the 952F excavator and 856T wheel loader powered by Cummins Tier 4 Final / Stage V engines. Designed for quarrying, mining, and large-scale infrastructure projects, these machines emphasize durability and continuous operation in demanding and remote environments.
Precision Equipment That Protects Project Margins
LiuGong also presented specialty equipment such as the 4215D motor grader and 6608F roller, highlighting its capabilities in precision grading and compaction. Advanced grading accuracy and integrated compaction technologies help reduce rework associated with material removal, pavement replacement, and crew remobilization, enabling customers to maintain schedules and control operating costs.
Unified Equipment Ecosystem
The addition of the TD16N Dozer completes LiuGong's product coverage across major earthmoving categories. Standardized telematics and diagnostic systems enable consistent monitoring and service support across multiple machine types, simplifying fleet management and aftersales operations.
Customer Engagement
In addition to the equipment display, LiuGong hosted its onsite podcast series "Tough Customer Talk" at Booth F18033, featuring customers and dealers sharing real-world experiences and insights into LiuGong machines' performance, reliability, and their business impact.
"Tough customers don't have time for complexity," said Andrew Ryan, President of LiuGong North America. "They need one partner they can rely on for the entire job—from the first dig to the final grade. Our goal is to deliver durable, efficient equipment supported through a unified service network."
Creating Value Through Cooperation
Four days prior to CONEXPO-CON/AGG, LiuGong North America held a two-day dealer conference, bringing together local dealers to discuss industry trends and future development strategies. Dealer representatives were also invited to share their market practices and success stories. The in-depth exchanges further strengthened partnerships and laid a solid foundation for continued market expansion.
On Mar.4, LiuGong and Cummins marked 30 years of global cooperation. To date, more than 300,000 LiuGong machines worldwide have been equipped with Cummins engines, while Guangxi Cummins has produced over 300,000 engines since its establishment, reflecting the strength of the long-standing partnership.
Commitment to the American Market
On March 2, LiuGong held a press conference attended by nearly 50 prominent industry and mainstream media outlets. Luo Guobing, President of LiuGong; Li Dongchun, Vice President of LiuGong; and Andrew Ryan, President of LiuGong North America, announced the company's latest strategy and field questions from the press regarding industry trends and future development plans. Through its expanded portfolio and customer-focused engagement, LiuGong reaffirmed its long-term commitment to the local market. The company will continue to broaden its offerings to meet evolving jobsite requirements, delivering reliable and comprehensive solutions for a wide range of applications.

MELBOURNE, Australia, March 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As cyber threats intensify and AI adoption accelerates, governance has moved firmly into the boardroom. To address this shift, LRQA, a leading global assurance provider, recently brought together senior executives and risk leaders in Melbourne for a strategic roundtable: "Navigating Cybersecurity and AI Governance: Insights from ISO Standards."
The discussion focused on moving beyond compliance-driven implementation toward embedding standards as strategic enablers. Participants explored how frameworks such as ISO/IEC 42001 (AI management) and ISO/IEC 27001 (information security) provide a practical foundation for managing digital risk without stifling innovation.
Key discussion themes included:
- Lifecycle-based AI risk controls: Embedding governance across AI design, deployment and monitoring.
- Measurable cybersecurity performance: Ensuring metrics provide executives with meaningful, actionable insight.
- Supplier governance: Managing third-party and supply chain exposure with greater rigour.
- Enterprise risk integration: Aligning cyber and AI risks with broader organisational risk frameworks.
Emma Carroll, Business Director for Australia and New Zealand, LRQA, emphasised the strategic shift required: "Digital risk can no longer be managed in silos. Organisations that lead in this environment integrate AI and cybersecurity governance into core business strategy, using standards to drive accountability, transparency and confident innovation."
The session also examined recurring readiness gaps observed across the region, with candid discussion regarding clear accountability for AI decision-making and the importance of sustaining continual improvement beyond initial certification milestones. The consensus among attendees was clear: governance maturity is rapidly becoming a defining characteristic of high-performing, resilient enterprises and a critical competitive differentiator.
In an evolving threat landscape, LRQA continues to support organisations navigating digital transformation through audit, certification, and advisory services across cybersecurity, AI governance, sustainability, and supply chain resilience.
