BONNYBRIDGE-based GBSS Civils & Plant Hire has purchased a new JCB 3CX Pro decked in ‘striking’ black livery with red and gold details.
The machine replaces a limited edition JCB 70th anniversary backhoe loader and has been put to work on a large-scale school building and housing development project in East Calder.
Supplied by Scot JCB, the backhoe loader is carrying out stockpiling, loading, excavating and cleaning duties on site with interchangeable bucket, pallet fork and sweeper attachments
GBSS co-founder George Burns said, “Scot JCB’s service support is second to none and this magnificent paint job is the latest example. Our highly skilled operator is delighted with the machine and says it is stunning to look at and even better than its predecessor with greater speed and performance. And when it comes to digging, he believes there is no better backhoe on the market.”
Established in 1994 as George Burns Plant Hire, the family business is run by husband-and-wife team George and Fiona Burns. Now operating separate plant hire and civil engineering divisions, the company runs a fleet of 75 machines and offers including plant hire, groundworks, pre-construction advice, construction, commissioning and maintenance works across the private and public sectors.
