Launched earlier this year, the 2.5-tonne zero-tailswing HX25Az is the largest of HD Hyundai鈥檚 new generation A-Series mini excavators that can be towed on a 3.5-tonne trailer.

鈥淲e bought the HX25Az with Digadoc trailers, as we can tow them on a van or a pick-up with buckets, a breaker and a grab,鈥 said company owner Rick Eyre.

Though only in its second year in business, Donellon already has more than 20 staff working on contracts across the UK. Its fleet of equipment already includes two HX25Az minis, an HX85A midi excavator and a 30-tonne HX300A, along with site dumpers and other equipment.

鈥淲e work nationwide in demolition, remediation and civils, mainly in the highways, rail and commercial sectors,鈥 said Eyre. 鈥淲e provide a full turnkey package and we like the specialist works that some other companies don鈥檛 want to tackle. I don鈥檛 want to be a huge company, we鈥檙e trying to do everything as efficiently and as safely as possible, which is something that fits with our customers too. We鈥檙e already booked out for the next six months.鈥

The Hyundai machines were supplied by Manchester dealer HES Enterprises.

Donellon is hoping to add a Hyundai 5-tonne mini and two 13-tonne machines to the fleet over the coming months.
