Xwatch has notched up its 5,000th installation of its safety system. The system, an SS1 (simple safe solution) height restrictor, was installed on a Kobelco SK230 excavator for Anglian Plant, a company that has become a valued partner since switching to Xwatch in 2021.
The news came as a pleasant surprise to Joe Paterson, managing director at Anglian Plant, who wasn’t aware his company had received the milestone system. “That’s pretty cool!” was his immediate reaction—a fitting response for a company that has long prioritised safety and efficiency in its fleet.
The company has fitted upward of 20 systems across its fleet, including the SS1 height restriction and XW4, height and slew restriction models. For Anglian Plant, adopting Xwatch technology has been instrumental in maintaining the high safety standards that have helped it grow into a leading supplier of rental equipment in the East of England. “Safety is our primary focus; we wouldn’t be without Xwatch,” said Paterson. “Our clients have confidence in Anglian Plant, knowing we are proactive in best safety practices.”
