We also stock a large amount of various hose fittings, seals, oils, lubricants and filters which can be purchased at the counter. We are agents for Manuli Hydraulics and stockists of Wurth products.
Recently, we have designed and installed a full fabrication and hydraulic project from scratch, turning a basic 7.5Ton wagon chassis into a mobile 20metre2 LED advertising wagon. We designed and fabricated the complete sub chassis assembly integrated with a bespoke hydraulic system.
Following the wagon, we designed, fabricated and installed a steel frame into the side of a double decker bus and installed a 18metre2 LED screen complete with generator and all the associated equipment.
Our vision is to maintain continual growth as a team, whilst striving to be number one in the eyes of the customer in a cost effective, safe and environmentally friendly manner.
