A-Plant Division Announces Huge Investment In New Equipment
Mather+Stuart Power Solutions has announced a multi-million pound investment in new equipment.
The temporary power equipment division of A-Plant will invest almost £8 million in various pieces of equipment before the end of 2018.
Phase one of the company's investment has seen a £2m order placed with Harrington Generators International this summer. The order boasts over 180 pieces of equipment, including a range of new innovative generators.
With synchronisation panels installed on many models, the new equipment offers customers more options to link generators together, providing significant fuel savings.
Gary Orton, Director of Mather+Stuart, said: "Following our acquisition by A-Plant in 2016 we have experienced a period of rapid growth, opening nine new service centres and tripling the size of our fleet from 650 generators in January 2016 to over 2,000 by August 2018.
"To support our expansion plans, keep up with customer demand and ensure we remain one of the UK's market leaders it is vital that we continually update our fleet.
"With further multi-million pound investments already in the pipeline we can guarantee that we offer the most innovative, reliable, safe, environmentally friendly equipment in the industry."
