GHH together with Studio Heikki Naulapää Oy created the baseline methodology and design philosophy for the MK-42 from which the GHH team developed this innovative, ergonomically designed, next generation dump truck setting the industry standard for future mining and construction products. This dump truck has been designed in collaboration with operators and miners in order to ensure the most fit-for-purpose product with best in class operator comfort and safety in mind. The powerful, rugged product design, lends not only to an extremely comfortable ride, but also provides for high productivity while maintaining low operating costs. The truck is strong on the inside and, through advanced industrial design, is also visually extremely appealing on the outside with the clear product colouring providing for maximum visibility in underground/tunnelling operations.
