Kayleigh Plant Hire Opts For The Latest Volvo Equipment

Kayleigh Plant Hire, of Tottenham North London, has taken delivery of fourteen Volvo compact excavators and one fourteen tonne EC140C crawler excavator from Volvo Construction Equipment.

Kayleigh Plant Hire Ltd was established in 1993 to complement the main activities of the O’Donovan Group which specialises in waste recycling, waste disposal, material and aggregates recycling. The original business started back in the 1930s and today the Group is managed by the second generation of the O’Donovan family. Since moving into general plant, the Company has grown substantially offering both operated and non operated machines for hire throughout London and the south east of England.

“We pride ourselves in offering our customers a first class service and we expect the same from our suppliers,” said Michael O’Donovan, Managing Director of Kayleigh Plant Hire. “We’ve had a good relationship with Volvo CE since we purchased a BL71 backhoe three years ago, so when it came time to replace some of our older compact equipment we decided to opt for the latest Volvo equipment.”

And the machines in question are five ECR88 Plus (eight point eight tonnes); seven of the recently introduced five tonne ECR48C; two EC25s (two and a half tonnes) compact models together with the larger fourteen tonne EC140C. These are the first Volvo excavators to join Kayleigh’s fleet which totals approximately 100 units.

Features include a variable flow power control hydraulic system for precise control under all load conditions and safety features such as Roll Over Protection Structure (ROPS), Tip Over Protection Structure (TOPS) and Falling Objects protection Structure (FOPS) contribute to outstanding operator safety.
