Powerscreen, a Northern Ireland-based business unit of Terex Corp. that makes mobile crushing, screening and conveying equipment, has added four retired employees to the Powerscreen Hall of Fame.

Launched at the ConExpo-Con/Agg 2023 event in Las Vegas, the Powerscreen Hall of Fame was created to recognize individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the development and success of its brand worldwide.

This year’s inductees are four former staff members who between them accumulated more than 160 years of service during their careers with Powerscreen, says the company.

Gerry Quinn started his Powerscreen career in the early 1980s and “travelled the world to support the Powerscreen distribution network and customers,” states the company. “As a familiar and friendly face on the Technical Helpdesk, his deep knowledge and approachable manner earned him the respect and gratitude of colleagues and customers around the globe,” says Powerscreen.

Terry McNally dedicated 40 years of service to Powerscreen, which the company says entailed “a tenure marked by hard work and commitment to the brand.” The company says McNally was a positive influence on his colleagues at Powerscreen’s manufacturing facility, and that his “legacy lives on through the relationships he built, the knowledge he imparted and the standards of excellence he set.”

Gerry Kelly’s 41-year career with Powerscreen included a role as warranty manager, where he “became a trusted pillar of support for Powerscreen distributors around the world, consistently offering expert guidance and ensuring customer satisfaction across diverse markets,” states the company. Adds Powerscreen, “His calm and thoughtful approach to every situation, whether resolving complex warranty issues or assisting with technical challenges, along with his ability to provide practical solutions was central to his success and set a standard for others to follow.”

Dermot Corrigan’s association with Powerscreen began in 1968 when the firm was still known as Ulster Plant, according to Powerscreen. The company says Corrigan played a key role in numerous new product launches and engineering projects, “bringing his expertise, innovation and deep understanding of the industry to every task.”

“It is with great pride and gratitude that we welcome these four exceptional individuals into the Powerscreen Hall of Fame,” said Powerscreen General Manager Sean Loughran, speaking at the Powerscreen Hall of Fame presentation in Dungannon, Northern Ireland.

“Their work, whether in the field, on the production line or with our global network, has set standards that continue to drive us forward,” added Loughran. “Their legacy is a lasting part of our story, and we are honored to recognize their extraordinary contributions to shaping the Powerscreen brand into the global leader it is today.”
