Terex Corporation has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Keestrack, a Belgian manufacturer of mobile crushing and screening equipment. The acquired business will continue to operate as an independent brand under the Terex Materials Processing division once the transaction closes.
Why it matters
The acquisition expands the Terex Materials Processing portfolio by integrating Keestrack’s established international manufacturing footprint and its distribution network of over 70 partners.
Keestrack serves customers in over 65 countries through a network of more than 70 distributors. The deal’s financial terms remain undisclosed, and the transaction is currently subject to standard regulatory approvals.

Market Landscape
This deal follows a broader industry pattern of major manufacturers absorbing specialized regional players to scale global distribution and product portfolios. By integrating Keestrack, Terex extends its reach in the competitive mobile processing equipment segment.
Operators in the crushing and screening industry should monitor how the integration of Keestrack’s 70-distributor network influences lead times and equipment availability. Those reliant on Keestrack products should watch for potential shifts in service support or regional inventory strategies once the deal closes.
The takeaway
The move signals a significant effort by Terex to consolidate market share in the mobile processing sector through existing global channels. Operators should track the closing of this deal in late 2026 to see if it impacts the availability or pricing of crushing and screening machinery.
