Family run plant hire and waste disposal company Buckland Newton Hire (BNH) is now the proud owner of the UK\u2019s first next generation Cat\u00ae 313 GC<\/a>, courtesy of Finning UK & Ireland, the region\u2019s exclusive Cat dealer. BNH purchased the machine specifically to meet the long-term hire needs of a recycling customer, as the new machine enables high productivity at lower running costs.<\/p>\n

The next generation 313 GC offers increased power and is designed to boost operator efficiency. It also lowers maintenance costs making it popular for rental and all-round excavating applications that require reliability. It includes two modes, Smart and Power, as well as a new, larger cab with improved ingress\/egress to boost operator comfort.<\/p>\n

BNH\u2019s fleet consists almost exclusively of Cat equipment and the 313 GC is not the only new addition. The company has also ordered its first wheel loader, a 950 GC, to arrive later this year. The 950 GC is a versatile, reliable machine with a high power density Cat 7.1 engine, the automatic Cat regeneration system and unmatched reliability and uptime. Both GC machines have been purchased with service contracts, so Finning can guarantee a low cost of ownership.<\/p>\n

Alongside its purchase of the 313 GC and 950 GC, BNH ordered a fleet of twelve machines from Finning, to support the launch of a new facility in December 2020. This included the company\u2019s first dozer, a D6.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>\u201cWe are always looking for ways to improve and upgrade our fleet,\u201d explained Brad Perrett, Manager at BNH. \u201cThe 313 GC is a natural evolution \u2014 it means we can maintain our competitive pricing, while offering all the creature comforts of Cat. I was impressed with the simplicity of the design, it is an easy-to-use, powerful, nice looking machine.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur customers are looking for reliable, durable products,\u201d added Perrett. \u201cWe have worked with Finning for over 30 years and see Cat as central to our brand \u2014 it\u2019s the thing that makes us stand out locally. Our customers are raving about the next generation Cat equipment \u2014 people love them!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe GC series is a way for companies to become Cat owners at really competitive price points,\u201d explained Jack Cezair, Territory Account Manager at Finning. \u201cThey bring many benefits to plant hire companies, as they deliver clear return on investment and means they can become a Cat owner for less than they think. Operators enjoy the comfortable cab design, increase their productivity, while saving on fuel and maintenance costs. We are encouraging others in the industry to challenge their realities and follow suit.\u201d<\/p>\n

The GC series includes the 313 GC Small Excavator, 315 GC, 320 GC Medium Excavator and the 950 GC Medium Wheel Loader. All four are designed to offer the reliability and durability of Cat products, while offering affordability and lower running costs.<\/p>\n
