Wring Group’s one-of-a-kind excavator makes impact at Swindon College site.
Bristol-based Wring Group has expanded its equipment fleet with the purchase of the first Doosan DX700LC 70 tonne crawler excavator in the demolition industry. The new DX700LC excavator was supplied by the local dealer, Kellands (Plant Sales) Ltd of Bridgwater in Somerset and joins the six other Doosan excavators supplied to Wring by Kellands over the last 12 months.
After modification by Kocurek of Ipswich, the new DX700LC excavator forms the base unit for a new super high reach demolition excavator, utilising a refurbished 37 metre long boom previously carried by a 65 tonne base unit in the Wring fleet. The new high reach excavator becomes be the largest of the four high reach excavators in the Wring fleet.
Dean Wring said: “Our continued investment in specialist equipment means we own one of the UK’s biggest, most advanced demolition fleets with a complement of over 55 excavators and standard and high reach demolition rigs from 0.75 – 90 tonne and up to 37 m reach, enabling us to undertake all manner of demolition and dismantling contracts.”
