 | | A-PLANT COMMITS OVER £5 MILLION OF NEW INVESTMENT IN FEBRUARY | | | A-Plant | | 22/11/2006 | | | In order to meet continuing demand and offer the most modern fleet in the industry to its national and local customers, A-Plant has committed over £5 million of investment in new equipment this month.
Major orders have been placed with a number of key supply partners, including JCB, Compair, Terex and TT-UK. The largest single order has been placed with JCB for a range of machines, including Excavators and Telehandlers of all sizes.
In addition, a major order has been placed with Terex for equipment including Dumpers, Rollers and Compaction Equipment. A-Plant has also purchased new Compressors and Compressor Generators from Compair and has expanded its range of Trenchless Technology equipment by placing a significant order with TT-UK Ltd. A-Plant is one of the largest suppliers of this type of equipment in the market.
Sat Dhaiwal, Chief Executive Officer of A-Plant, said: 'At A-Plant we pride ourselves on being able to provide our customers - both at a local level and national accounts - with the exact equipment they want, when they want it. If we don't have the equipment in stock that a customer is looking for, we will purchase new equipment for their needs and this latest £5 million+ investment confirms exactly that.'
