The products will now be sold, serviced, and rented in New Zealand by a new TDX business unit.

At the forefront of Linde’s innovations is its automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and commitment to emission-reducing technologies.

“We are delighted to partner with Linde. We will be setting up a new company to give focus to this great opportunity and ensure we deliver the very best service possible for our new customers,” TDX chief executive says Colm Hamrogue says.

The new company, which will begin operations mid-November, will employ dedicated specialists who will be responsible for the extensive range of Linde products. 

This extends to supporting existing customers who have previously purchased their trucks in New Zealand who will be kept informed as TDX transitions to servicing Linde products over the coming months.

“Since we started talks with the Linde team, I have been impressed with the quality of the Linde product range, the passion they have for their products and above all the focus they have for their customers.  

“They, like us, are committed to delivering a great customer experience in New Zealand.  I believe we can achieve great things together and I am looking forward to getting out and about and supporting our Linde customers,” Hamrogue says. 

Linde Australia and NZ general manager Ben Buddo says the partnership is “a huge step forward” for his team. 

“TDX is highly regarded as providing New Zealand customers with local know-how and a world-class customer experience.  

“We are excited to have them on board, supporting our Linde customers in New Zealand and to continue to grow the brand with their support,” Buddo says.
