Investment in our Fleet

Econ Group have made investment in the Hitachi excavator range of products with stage V engines. They are one of the best performing excavators in the market at present. The purchases have included including ZX85, ZX130, ZX210 and ZX350.

These hydraulic excavators with the full demolition specification are exceptional, giving us complete peace of mind and outstanding performance. We first purchased Hitachi excavators back in 2012 and have never looked back!

The new excavators boost a 9% reduced in fuel consumption compared to previous models. This is really important in the current climate with the ever-increasing cost in fuel. The new improved comfort in the cab with integrated console and seat suspension.

The Hitachi is very strong and hard wearing and, in our view, built to last. It seemed to be the right choice when making the purchasing this year.

"We are delighted to have purchased such excellent products from Hitachi UK and will continue to do so as our operator feedback has been fantastic!  We are also very pleased with the service and support given to us by Hitachi aftercare. It’s a hard life for any excavator but you really do push them to their limits in our industry.

I am personally looking forward to a few hours in the operating seat of these machines next month when they arrive on site. I think the dash 7 excavator is next generation stepping ahead of brands in the UK market at the moment “ commented Liam Moore, Senior Operations Manager

Our Client is extremely pleased at the way we, supported by Econ, have dealt with the situation. From the moment you confirmed that notifiable asbestos was present, a focused, concerted effort has been made by Econ to deal with the problem. The client was impressed at the speed in which Econ tabled a strategic proposal to the HSE to remove the asbestos, working 24/7 non-stop, to expedite the removal. The fact that the proposal, including approval by the HSE, was achieved in such a short timescale is credit to Econ. The proactive approach, while being flexible and accommodating to allow key ECR staff to work in a safe, isolated contained area, has really impressed the Network Rail team.
