— On August 10, local time, a powerful 7.5-magnitude earthquake struck Colombia, causing significant casualties and property damage. Following the disaster, the Colombian government declared a “state of national disaster” as rescue and relief efforts began across the affected regions.
In the immediate aftermath of the earthquake, SANY’s Colombia team, under its Latin America Region, swiftly activated its global disaster response mechanism and mobilized emergency rescue resources overnight. Three backhoe loaders, one wheel loader, two excavators, and three service vehicles, together with professional operators and service personnel, were dispatched to the hardest-hit areas to support urgent rescue operations.
At the same time, SANY actively reached out to local customers and partners to coordinate additional equipment, manpower and on-site support, further strengthening the rescue force available in the disaster zone. As of press time, all SANY rescue equipment and team members have arrived in the affected areas and are now working alongside local authorities and rescue teams to support debris removal, road clearance and search-and-rescue operations.
As a leading global construction machinery manufacturer, SANY has long relied on its worldwide service network, localized teams and strong customer partnerships to respond rapidly to major disasters. From emergency rescue to post-disaster recovery, SANY remains committed to using its equipment, technology and service capabilities to provide timely support where it is needed most.
SANY will continue to closely monitor developments in Colombia and actively cooperate with local authorities in emergency relief and reconstruction efforts, demonstrating through concrete action the responsibility and commitment of a Chinese enterprise on the global stage.
