Chainsaws and Power Cutters donated to rescuers in earthquake
During the weekend following the earthquake in the South West of Italy, Husqvarna Group donated chainsaws and power cutters to the local Fire Department and Rescue Teams. It was done to support relief efforts in the aftermath of the earthquake, through helping clear street passages and cut destroyed house material more efficiently.
"When the earthquake happened we all, from the Husqvarna Group, felt the need to do something,” said Olivier Le Treste, Marketing Manager, Regions 1, 2 and 3 at Husqvarna Group.
Husqvarna Group sent 31 pro chainsaws, 4 power cutters and a significant quantity of cutting accessories, hand tools and protective equipment to the earthquake area.
