WASHINGTON, May 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Caterpillar Inc. (NYSE: CAT) is bringing its iconic yellow iron to the Celebration of Construction on the National Mall to showcase innovative products, technology and services helping its customers build the nation's – and the world's – infrastructure. Caterpillar customers construct the roads, bridges, seaports and runways that connect people to jobs, opportunities and one another.

"This celebration provides an opportunity to showcase the importance of infrastructure investment," said Caterpillar Construction Industries Group President Tony Fassino. "We have a nearly 100-year legacy of providing products and services that continually improve the quality of life and the environment by helping our customers fulfill society's need for infrastructure, including shelter, clean water, transportation and reliable energy."

Caterpillar offers multiple solutions made to match its customers' work, some of which are on display at Caterpillar's exhibit at the Celebration of Construction on the National Mall:

• The Cat® 301.9 battery electric mini excavator prototype is one of four construction industry products Caterpillar is developing to help support its customers' climate-related objectives.
• The Cat® 299D3 compact track loader is a versatile machine on a jobsite – it digs, grades, moves material, runs work tools and loads.
• The Cat® 966 XE wheel loader delivers increased fuel efficiency and premium performance with simple-to-use standard technologies to boost operator efficiencies and lower maintenance costs.
• The Cat® C9 engine helps deliver low operating costs, reliability and durability. The remanufactured Cat C9 engine highlights our commitment to sustainability by offering Cat® Reman products that provide like-new performance and reliability at fraction-of-new costs when returning the used core.
