ÅÔÅÌÁ has been from 1969 up to 2004 the
official and exclusive representative in Greece of the
manufacturer of snow grooming machines, the German Kässbohrer
Gelandefahrzeug AG. In total, over the past 35 years,
ÅÔÅÌÁ has supplied 11 snow grooming machines in Greece,
all of which are still in full operation!

The first supply of a snow grooming machine
in Greece was in 1969 on behalf of the ski center of Metsovo,
which bought a Kässbohrer
Ñisten Bully (PB) 060. In 1976, in the first year of operation
of the Parnassos ski center, ETEMA supplied the center
with a PB 160. The successful operation of that machine
formed the basis for the delivery of two more ÑÂ 170 in
1980 in Parnassos. A third ÑÂ 170 was delivered in 1982
to a private ski center, while a fourth one was sold in
the same year in Cyprus. The sales of snow grooming machines
continued in 1993 with the delivery in the Parnassos ski
center of a ÑÂ 240. In 1995, the Public Power Corporation
of Greece bought a PB 110 with a special front winch,
and in 2001 a private company bought a PB 200 with a passengers’
cabin. That same company acquired one more PB 170, again
with a passenger’s cabin. |

In the year 2003, ETEMA took over the general
repair of the three Kässbohrer
snow grooming machines of Parnassos ski center. The general
repair took place in a factory in the town of Livadia, it
was completed in less than 3 months and it included the change
of a diesel motor, repairs on hydraulic pumps and motors,
chassis reinforcements, general electric and electronic inspection,
painting of the cabins and the chassis, and many more other
works.
Moreover, in the same year ETEMA
sealed a deal of exclusive representation in Greece of
the German manufacturer of snow grooming tracks, Hans
Hall GmbH. The thousands of sales of tracks on
a world-wide basis and most importantly for all types
of snow grooming machines, prove the excellent manufacturing
quality in combination with the very attractive prices
that Hans Hall offers. |

In 2004, ETEMA bought a PB 200 with all necessary equipment
(All way blade, snow frase, snow compactor), in order to cover
the always increasing snow grooming needs of the Greek ski
centers. Finally, the excellent cooperation of ETEMA with
Kässbohrer can be proved by the continuous providing
of technical support and spare parts for all the snow grooming
machines that our company has supplied. An exceptional example
is the two ÑÂ 170 of the Parnassos ski center, which have
been in continuous operation since 1980!
