New Bobcat T40.180SLP 18 m Telehandler at CHAP Group
One of Scotland’s leading privately-owned construction businesses, CHAP Group, based in Westhill, Aberdeenshire, has taken delivery of a new Bobcat T40.180SLP 18 metre telehandler. The new T40.180SLP telehandler was supplied by Balgownie Ltd, the local Authorised Bobcat Dealer.
The new Bobcat telehandler will be based at CHAP’s Summerhill site in the city of Aberdeen. This high profile project on behalf of Aberdeen City Council will see CHAP Group construct 369 flats over a four year period. According to CHAP, the new Bobcat 18 m telehandler will prove invaluable on what is a large site and across a range of different applications.
Tom Burn, Plant & Transport Manager for CHAP Group, said: “Following a test drive and demonstration period with the CHAP Plant & Transport team, the new Bobcat machine was agreed to provide great value for money. With thanks to Balgownie Ltd and also the livery team at Inspire Signs & Graphics, we are extremely pleased to have added the Bobcat T40.180SLP telehandler to the CHAP fleet.”
Under Tom Burn’s leadership, CHAP Group’s large in-house plant and transport fleet provides a vital supporting role to its four main operating divisions: Construction, Homes, Quarries and Civils.
