AG Wilson Civil Engineering, a family-owned civil engineering contractor based in Co Armagh, Ireland, has invested in three 24-tonne SANY excavators, supplied through Irish dealer Sleator Plant, with another three machines on order.
General manager for Sleator Plant, Aaron McCaul, reckons the decision was a combination of familiarity and trust in both the supplier and the machines.
“The specification of the machines, along with the five-year warranty, makes the SANY option a positive one for the business,” he notes. “Their trust in the team at Sleator Plant also helped in their decision to place a large multi-unit order.”
The additions join an already robust fleet of SANY equipment that includes five 8-tonne SY80U excavators, a 16-tonne compact wheeled excavator, and two 16-tonne SY155U machines.
AG Wilson’s relationship with Sleator Plant began with its first SANY excavator purchase in December 2021. Since then, the company has been consistently impressed with the performance of the SANY machines and the exceptional support provided by Sleator Plant.
AG Wilson, established in 1979, has built a reputation for delivering comprehensive civil engineering services across the UK and Ireland. With more than 40 years of experience, the company prides itself on technical expertise, a dedicated workforce, and a commitment to integrity in every project it undertakes.
The newly acquired SY215C excavators will be deployed immediately on a pipeline project in Scotland. In addition to these, AG Wilson has placed further orders, including a 40-tonne SY390H excavator and two SY75C machines, which will bring the total number of SANY machines in its fleet to 16.
The extra capacity that these machines will bring will enable the company to maintain its programme of increasing operational efficiency and capacity.
