The C-36 portable screening plant has a record breaking introduction at Conexpo Trade Show 2008 in Las Vegas, Nevada (04/02/2008)

Only one month after being launched, the model C-36 has exceeded sales projections for the 1st quarter with twenty sales at its first trade show alone, The Conexpo 2008. Sales are expected to remain steady through the second quarter as U-Screen boosts its advertising public relation and show budgets.

Bob DeVoe, co-founder of U-Screen, says that “[Conexpo] not only helped [U-Screen] with the introduction of the C-36, but it also helped us to establish a higher credibility with our target market”.

The C-36 model is built with the basic U-Screen principals in order to provide contractors with an durable, industrial-quality machine. This machine is equipped with the Kubota 25HP diesel engine, all hydraulic system, and 2 year warranty. Moreover, its main and crucial feature is its 10’ high-stacking conveyor.

Successful 2007: U-Screen matches 2006 sales (01/06/2008)

Despite the prediction for a weak 2007 economy, U-Screen, Inc. performed relatively well when compared to previous year. Two important factors which contributed to the good performance in 2007 were the aggressive online marketing and the new trade shows attended by U-Screen.

At first no one took the 2007 predictions seriously however, in the first quarter the effects seemed to be taking place nationwide. U-Screen then recognized that to have a relatively good performance, they would have to do things a little different to stand out in the industry. That’s when Bob DeVoe and Paul Quinn, the owners of U-Screen, decided to aggressively use online marketing tools to reach out to their target market. New website, ad engines, videos and pictures helped U-Screen advertise their equipment to those who could not physically see the machines.

The online marketing tools helped U-Screen to reach out but people still wanted to see the machines in person and because of that, half way through the year the management team decided that new trade shows would be a valuable tool to expose the company and machines. Two additional shows this year were the ‘WHEN Recycling Show’ in PA and the ‘The Green Industry and Equipment Show’ in KY. Both trade shows resulted in good lead generation and floor sales.

U-Screen matched its 2006 sales in 2007 which by itself is a remarkable performance taking into account the national overall economic performance.

U-Screen attends the annual Massachusetts Cemetery Association Suppliers Day Expo (09/20/07)

On September 19th, U-Screen, Inc. attended the annual Massachusetts Cemetery Association (MCA) Suppliers Day Expo at the VFW in Medway to showcase the U-Screen AX-500. Attendees were very impressed with how quiet and efficient in diesel consumption the machine is. After speaking to some of the cemetery directors, Francisco Oliveira (U-Screen Rep.) was shocked to find out how they were still purchasing loom and other aggregates instead of recycling the existing material they currently have on site.

Francisco has future plans in working with the MCA to show how the cemetery staffs on how they can save money by recycling their existing material on site. If you have any suggestions on how to help educate the cemeteries in the recycling process, email us at info@u-screen.com.

City of New Bedford purchases AX-500 for the Cemetery Department (08/22/07)

When searching for a portable screening plant, the city of New Bedford discovered U-Screen, Inc. "When I first saw the picture of the AX-500 I thought I was coming to see a little toy, but when I saw it live, I knew this machine was built tough" said Al Simoe from the City of New Bedford at U-Screen headquarters.

City officials were very impressed with the components of the screener, specially the engine (Kubota 25HP diesel), the screener rigid engineering and the customer service they were greeted with.

U-screen and the city of New Bedford utilized the services of C&J Equipment and John Face to set up the sale of the machine. "What I like best about U-Screen is that they are local to us", John mentioned to the city officials during the AX-500 demo.

The machine has been delivered and Cemetery workers are looking forward to use the machine to speed up their operations as there is no more waiting for top soil truck loads to arrive. For pictures and movies of the AX-500, please visit our picture and movie page.

W.H.E.N. Recycling Expo (08/20/07)

U-Screen was one of the exhibitors on the W.H.E.N. Recycling Expo August 15 - 16. Being one of the smallest equipment at the show, the AX-500 surprised many attendees with its engineering, power and mobility. Many of the excavation companies that currently have skid steers mentioned that our machine would be the perfect portable screening plant for their operations. One other characteristic that really raised eye browns was the Kubota 25HP diesel engine .

However the biggest selling point was the great engineering that Paul and Bob applied when designing the machine. Its the quietest portable screening plant on the market and the only shaking part on this machine is the shaker box. The remainder of the machine does not vibrate, preventing from long term stress on the machine.

Attendees Review:
"This machine is so quite I can start screening early and this machine wont bother my neighbors"
~ Bob Smith, VA

"Being portable is the biggest feature on this machine for me, Ii would be able to screen dirt on site eliminating truck fees, driver fees and tipping fees."
- Richard Anderson, PA
