Downwell Demolition doing well with Komatsu excavators
10/02/2009

Surrey based Downwell Demolition has expanded its impressive machine fleet with 3 x Komatsu PC210LCD-8 tracked excavators, purchased from sole UK distributor, Marubeni-Komatsu.

Their latest purchase comes during difficult conditions in the construction industry and is an indication of projects that they have secured for the rest of the year. Their long list of clients goes to show that their strapline of ‘Demolition Done Well’ is achieved with every single project.

Downwell Demolition is a relatively new company having only been in operation for 5 years but have an impressive fleet of 25 machines which range from 21 tonne to 45 tonne and high reach excavators.

The new additions will be used for a number of projects over the coming months including a DEFRA project in Guildford and a demolition project in London. Both projects involve the demolition of existing buildings to make way for new, affordable housing.

As members of the National Demolition Training Group, Downwell Demolition invests in training facilities which means that all demolition and plant operatives are trained for their specific task. As users of Constructionline, the UK register of pre-qualified construction services, the company is able to save time and improve efficiency by using the database of pre-qualified suppliers and contractors.

Kevin Foster, Plant Manager at Downwell Demolition talks about their purchase:

“After approaching the entire market when purchasing their new machines, Downwell Demolition believes that Komatsu is far stronger and superior than any other. In addition to this, Marubeni-Komatsu’s customer support services are reliable and overall, is what helped secure the deal”.
