On May 7, 2016, the city Xiangyang in China in the Hubei Province, was flooded after heavy rain. The maximum rainfall was recorded with 89 mm. The overflow of various culverts at various main roads caused extensive floods, the deepest part of which reached 2.5 m. During the afternoon, the Urban Construction Commission quickly launched a flood control plan, so that six emergency rescue teams had to immediately start operating at the most serious sites. Ten Wacker Neuson PT6LT trash pumps were deployed to remove the water and to deal with the mud created during the drainage process. The immediate reaction helped to minimize the delay in citizens' travel schedules due to the bad weather.

Proven since decades in Europe, Wacker Neuson recently introduced four wheel steered wheel loaders in the region China. The products are more than wheel loaders, with various attachments they can be used throughout the whole year.
