Porter Hire has expanded the number of compaction and small earthmoving equipment available in the Australian and New Zealand markets
Over 300 new machines have been added to the rental fleet of Porter Hire following further investment made by the business.
The new machines span a wide range of industries to better meet the increased demand of the civil industries in Australia and New Zealand.
Having already made extensive investment in 2021 to its rental fleet, Porter Hire national manager Paul Kot says he aims to develop the most comprehensive heavy equipment rental service available.
Kot also revealed that in addition to the expansion of the heavy earthmoving fleet, Porter Hite is also expanding its compaction and light earthmoving range.
“We are adding additional Ammann Twin Drum Rollers to include the ARX40 4T Roller and new products such as the Ammann ARS50 5T Single Drum Padfoot Roller with Blade that was recently announced by Ammann,” Kot says.
“With these new machines also comes the latest emission reduction technology – with the majority coming with Stage V engines which will help our customers meet their carbon reduction targets.”
The addition of 300 machines to the rental fleet, all equipped with the latest technologies represents the business’ biggest investment yet in its hire division.
“The exciting thing is, this our biggest investment yet, even bigger than last year, and continues to show the Group’s confidence in the Australian Hire business,” Kot says.
When purchasing the new machines, Porter Hire says considerable attention was paid to both innovative technologies and emissions reductions, with each unit more efficient and generating significant reductions in fuel burn.
The brand’s taskforce of specialist mechanics, technicians, and workshops will be available to provide backup services when required.
With emissions reductions and targets becoming more stringent across the industry, Porter Hire hopes to have equipment suitable for all job sites.
