Zoomlion Donates Third Batch of Medical Supplies to Over 40 Countries Fighting

COVID-19

This is an emergency response from Zoomlion's following appeals made by

Zoomlion's overseas customers, partners and dealers in 43 countries and regions

including Malaysia, Philippines, Cambodia, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Germany,

Australia and the USA to source vitally needed PPE supplies amid the escalating

global coronavirus crisis.

"The donated medical supplies consist of disposable face masks, N95 medical

masks and thermometers," said Li Bin, director of the international business

management department of Zoomlion. "We collected demand information through our

international branches, subsidiaries and dealers, so that we can best allocate

our resources. Once delivered, we, with our partners, will assist with

distribution to local people in need."

A Return of Kindness

When China declared the highest level of emergency in response to COVID-19,

Zoomlion's overseas employees participated in the procurement of medical

supplies for donation to frontline healthcare workers in China.

"We will never forget a Singaporean client who leveraged his global network to

procure masks during our darkest hour," said Li Bin. "Now many countries

globally are experiencing an emerging, rapidly evolving situation; we believe

our donation is not only to return the kindness but fulfill our role as a

responsible international company," added Li.

Zoomlion previously donated two batches of medical supplies to Lombardy, Italy

and Zoomlion's overseas subsidiaries, including Zoomlion CIFA, Italy and m-tec,

and Wilbert, Germany.

"We believe with concerted effort, we will be able to overcome these

difficulties," encouraged Li.
