The deal includes solid body small breakers to suit carriers from 1.1 tonnes to 8 tonnes and versatile medium breakers to suit carriers from 10 to 26 tonnes.

Flannery Plant Hire has more than 1600 machines operating from two main hubs in Wembley and Manchester.

Director Patrick Flannery said the investment in Atlas Copco was to ensure the quality and reliability of the fleet. “It is very important that there is no down time as it leads to greater customer satisfaction. You can have the best machine in the world, however if the breaker is not up to scratch it lets the machine down.”

Atlas Copco regional sales manager Nick Anwyl said: “Flannery are a major player in the plant hire industry. For them to choose Atlas Copco is a great commendation of a robust and reliable product that has proved it can stand up to the rigours of the UK plant hire industry.”
