Central-belt based Core Drilling Specialists continues its strong investment streak following the delivery of a brand-new Electric Front Loader and Dumper truck to add to the business’ booming fleet.
Both the Sherpa mini-loader and the Twinca Dumper Truck will support the delivery of several live and forthcoming CDS contracts as the business enters a new financial year. The new pieces of ‘kit’ include telescopic lift functions, designed to support the manoeuvring of debris into high-sided skips to allow for more efficient resource recovery.
The new electric models will offer a number of sustainable benefits to the firm’s clients by offering assurance that zero fumes are emitted during the demolition stage of internal projects. The delivery comes shortly after CDS’ investment in an Electric Floor Saw from Husquarvarna Construction back in February 2023.
Supporting the business’ strategy for sustainable growth, the emissions-free front loader and dumper truck will revolutionise CDS operations by assisting the reduction of the firm’s environmental footprint whilst reducing the overall manual labour on the team. With demands from the Scottish Government continuing to accelerate, the forward-thinking Core Drilling Specialists continue to be at the forefront of conversations surrounding Scotland’s journey towards net-zero.
Scott Murray, CDS Managing Director, said:
“The entire team at CDS extend our thanks to Compact Loaders UK for supporting us with the delivery of our new plant machinery which will have a huge impact on our path towards net-zero operations.
“As a demolition contractor of choice for some of Scotland’s most prestigious projects, we understand our environmental responsibility to ensure we consistently monitor our emissions and undertake measures to consistently reduce our carbon footprint.
“The Sherpa mini-loader and the Twinca Dumper Truck will help us bolster productivity and reduce lead times on a number of internal contracts that are set to begin in the coming weeks.
“As growth continues to remain one of our core objectives, we will continue to reinvest in sustainable plant and machinery to ensure we maintain our position as a market leader in the built environment”.
