Epiroc has appointed Ernest Doe & Sons Ltd as the authorised dealer for its hydraulic attachment tools across Suffolk and Norfolk.
Keith Lambourne, Epiroc’s Business Line Manager said “Having taken on the Epiroc dealership in Essex last year, we have been so impressed by the Doe team’s investment in sales, service and local stockholding of attachments and parts that we are extending their coverage to Suffolk and Norfolk. With a reputation for combining customer focus with product knowledge and expertise, Ernest Doe & Sons has successfully grown Epiroc’s share of the market for hydraulic breakers and other excavator attachments in Essex and we are confident that they will now replicate this across East Anglia.”
Epiroc’s Hydraulic Attachment Tools (HAT) division has been a technology leader for more than 50 years. The hydraulic breaker was originally developed in 1963 by the German company Krupp Berco Bautechnik, which became part of Atlas Copco in 2002. Epiroc became a company in its own right in April 2018. The product range today includes 100 different hydraulic attachment tools, and is designed to ensure that customers can always find the right tool for their specific application and excavator.
The division manufactures excavator attachment tools such as hydraulic breakers, cutters, pulverisers, bucket crushers, shears, grapples, drum cutters and magnets. Among others, the division manufactures the HB 10000, the largest serial hydraulic breaker in the world – every punch equals the weight of 130 elephants.
Graham Parker, Sales Director of Ernest Doe, said, “Epiroc’s comprehensive and robust product range, combined with our commitment to holding the full range of spare parts, makes this the perfect partnership. We are delighted to now be representing Epiroc’s market leading range across East Anglia, offering fast and reliable back-up service to new and existing customers.”.
