HT15P Mini Excavator Meets North American Buyers at CoCreate 2026
Bringing a Real Machine to the North American Market
International equipment buyers often want more than product information on a screen. Seeing a machine in person and speaking directly with the manufacturer can provide a clearer understanding of its configuration, operating concept and potential applications.
That was one of the reasons Hightop brought the HT15P mini excavator to Alibaba CoCreate Summit 2026 in Los Angeles. Held on September 9–10, the event brought together global suppliers, business buyers and industry professionals for product presentations, sourcing discussions and business networking.
HT15P on Display in Los Angeles
Hightop presented the HT15P at Booth B06 in the South Hall of the Los Angeles Convention Center.
Instead of presenting the product only through brochures or digital materials, the Hightop team used the exhibition floor to introduce the actual machine to visitors. Product demonstrations and direct conversations allowed potential customers to learn more about the equipment and discuss whether its configuration could match their working requirements.

Questions from Equipment Buyers
Visitors to the Hightop booth discussed a range of topics related to compact construction equipment. Conversations included working conditions, equipment configuration and potential cooperation.
For overseas customers, these discussions can be an important part of evaluating a machinery supplier. They provide an opportunity to communicate directly with the manufacturer rather than relying only on online product information.

From Product Presentation to Market Feedback
A trade show also works in the other direction. While customers learn about the product, manufacturers gain a better understanding of the people who may eventually use or distribute the equipment.
Through conversations with visitors at CoCreate 2026, the Hightop team collected direct feedback on customer requirements and market expectations in North America. These conversations provide useful reference points for future product improvements and overseas business development.
Why Face-to-Face Communication Still Matters
Construction equipment is closely connected with real working conditions. Factors such as site access, operating requirements, attachment selection and equipment configuration can vary from one customer to another.
Meeting customers in person makes it easier to discuss these differences and understand the actual requirements behind an equipment inquiry. For Hightop, the Los Angeles event provided another opportunity to build communication with customers beyond digital channels.
Hightop's Manufacturing Foundation
Hightop operates a manufacturing facility covering approximately 110,000 square meters and has around 1,000 employees. Its operations cover equipment development, manufacturing and international supply.
This manufacturing foundation supports Hightop's ongoing work with customers in overseas markets and provides production capacity for its construction equipment business.
Looking Beyond the Exhibition Floor
Participating in CoCreate 2026 is part of Hightop's continued effort to communicate with international customers and better understand overseas equipment markets.
Hightop will continue developing compact construction machinery while working to improve product quality and overseas support. The goal is to provide equipment solutions that match practical customer requirements and create long-term cooperation with customers and partners in international markets.
