The Fermec company was created by a management buyout of the MF Industrial division in 1992. This encompassed all construction equipment lines from Massey Ferguson . The Fermec company was purchased by Case IH in 1997 from the management team and operated under the Case CE division. In order for Case IH to obtain approval to merge with New Holland in 2001, they were required to sell off Fermec.[1] It ceased trading as a brand in 2001 when it when it was sold to Terex , and the models rebranded as Terex models in the standard off-white colour scheme.
History [ ]
In 2017 some of the former Fermec backhoe line-up that had being rebranded as Terex has passed to French firm Mecalac , after they purchased the former Terex Coventry compact machinery factory following the sale of the Dump truck and ADT product range and factory in Glasgow to Volvo Construction Equipment earlier in the year.
