To tell the history of TEREX Roadbuilding Latin America is to be reminded of the paving trajectory in Brazil.
Between 1956 and 1960, the government of Juscelino Kubitscheck elaborated an audacious program of goals that promoted the modernization in Brazil. The economic growth accelerated trade among the urban centers and the demand of products from the primary sector coming from the rural zones.
The JK Administration spearheaded modernization in Brazil
This gave rise to the need of new highways connecting different points of this immense land of Brazil. During this era of acceleration, highway transportation arose as the best alternative for carrying out the slogan "fifty years in five", which was the premise of JK's campaign.
Pionnering comes from de South
Attentive to the development of the highways in the country, Commander Clemente Cifali, an Italian / Brazilian citizen who had made his home in Rio Grande do Sul in the 50s, began in Caxias do Sul the first asphalt plant manufactured in the country.
Pioneer in the market, TEREX Roadbuilding Latin America is committed to quality, tradition, and innovation since its first steps. These criteria implemented by the founder are used until today as reference plans for all the company's actions.
