Kubotas in constant use at Clancy
Clancy Plant, one of the UK’s largest private contractors, has significantly increased its fleet of Kubota excavators in order to keep its machinery supply in-house.


The business is pursuing higher levels of efficiency and more reliable means of operation, said Bernie Stack, Clancy Plant director. As part of this, Clancy Plant requires powerful, durable and efficient machinery that will perform reliably and consistently every time.

Having ordered 12 KX015-4s, five KX080-4as and five U55-4s, Clancy Plant are equipped to tackle any challenge and its ability to source in-house for the Clancy Group relieves any concern that might be had by hiring externally.

“By adding 22 1265 Kubota excavators to our fleet, we’re providing operators and engineers with machinery that is both effective and easy to work with,” he said. “With this latest order, we now have a total of 300 Kubotas in our fleet, which are in constant use.”
