Diesel Dirt & Turf 2019

Now in its third year, Diesel Dirt and Turf has quickly become Australia’s biggest construction industry exhibition, with over 61,200 attendees and 200 exhibitors it isn’t hard to see why. From the 3rd through to the 5th of May 2019, visitors flocked through the gates at Penrith Panthers Exhibition Grounds despite the less than ideal weather at times. Free to attend and family friendly, the event was a chance for leading manufacturers like HCA to showcase their range of earthmoving solutions as well as a chance for customers to interact with sales representatives and find out more about the products.

Hitachi Set Up at National Diesel Dirt and Turf Expo 2019


“The Diesel Dirt and Turf expo was an excellent chance to engage with our customers face to face.”



Plenty of Hitachi giveaways including lollipops

The Hitachi stand featured the entire mini excavator range; ZX17U-5 ZX26U-5, ZX33U-5, ZX38U-5, ZX48U-5, ZX55U-5 and ZX65USB-5 in addition to a ZX135US-5 medium excavator and ZW250-5B wheel loader. As well as the machines, there were plenty of giveaways including stickers, Hitachi branded lollipops and kids hard hats. Other merchandise such as pens, hats and stubby coolers were available for a gold coin donation. One lucky visitor Scott won himself a brand new Hitachi 50” HDR UHD Smart TV by taking part in the jelly bean guessing competition. The money raised from this and the merchandise will go towards our ongoing support of the Humpty Dumpty Foundation.

“The Diesel Dirt and Turf expo was an excellent chance to engage with our customers face to face. The Hitachi stand was a popular visit by many existing customers as well as gaining new leads for the business over the three days.” said NSW Sales Manager, Steven Jones. Once again the event was a great success, and great opportunity to showcase our current offerings.

Congratulations to Shaw Contracting on the recent delivery of their new Hitachi ZX350LC-7G.

The machine is already on site at the Sassafras–Wesley Vale Irrigation Scheme Augmentation in Tasmania’s north-west, supporting a major water infrastructure project designed to significantly increase water availability across the region.

It’s great to see Hitachi machinery contributing to infrastructure that will support local agriculture, communities and the long-term growth of the region.

A big thank you to the Shaw Contracting team for their continued support and confidence in Hitachi | LANDCROS. We look forward to seeing the ZX350LC-7G get to work! 💪

Less risk. Less fatigue. More productivity. 👷‍♂️🚧

For Colin Wagner from Fergus Civil, machine technology isn’t just about getting the job done faster, it’s about making the job safer and easier for everyone on site.

With GPS technology in his Hitachi ZX225USLC-7, there’s less need for people working around the machine checking levels, helping reduce risk while keeping the job moving.

And when you’re digging all day, operator comfort matters too.

“I’m not tired at the end of the day, it doesn't leave me with a sore back… which is bloody good!”

Real feedback from the people putting our machines to work every day.

Hitachi | LANDCROS. Built for the work. Supported where you work.

Meet Baxter, a fourth-year apprentice at our Adelaide branch. 👋

From working on compact excavators in the workshop to gaining hands-on experience with some of the largest Japanese made machines in the Hitachi | LANDCROS range, no two days of Baxter’s apprenticeship are quite the same.

We’re proud to support the next generation of skilled technicians with practical training, experienced mentors and opportunities to build a rewarding career in heavy machinery.

Great work, Baxter — we’re excited to see where your career takes you!
QME 2026! 🧡

Across three action-packed days in Mackay, the Hitachi | LANDCROS stand was buzzing as customers, industry partners and families got up close with our Japanese mining and construction equipment,  including the mighty EX1200-7.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, climbed aboard our machines and caught up with the team. It was great connecting with everyone.

See you at the next one!
There’s only one thing better than being an operator… doing it with a view like that. 🌊

Hitachi | LANDCROS gives the precision, control and reliability RONMAC Holdings team need on this waterfront project to keep the job moving.

Proven Japanese engineering and dedicated support for a great combination of capable operators and dependable machinery.
