A-Plant has acquired 250 of the latest TRIME mobile tower lighting units in a £2.5 million investment.

The firm has taken delivery of X-Eco, X-Hybrid and X-Solar Hybrid models, which provide longer running times, greater fuel efficiency, innovation and reliability.

Dave Harris, Business Development Director for A-Plant, said the investment places the firm in a good position heading into winter.

"A-Plant is committed to investing in the latest innovative and sustainable equipment to get the job done quickly, safely and efficiently," he said.


"It is essential that we have a good supply of the very latest and most appropriate equipment as winter approaches to keep sites bright and illuminated when reduced daylight hours and low levels of visibility can significantly impact on projects and timescales.

"Our latest investment will provide contractors with significant environmental and financial benefits over traditional Lighting Towers, offering crisp, clear light over a wide area with significant fuel reduction, lower emissions, longer running times as well as a range of additional benefits.

"Demand for sustainable, lower carbon producing tower lighting has increased in recent years and we are delighted to offer the biggest fleet in the country."

The new lighting towers are available for immediate hire from A-Plant's national network of service centres.
