WASTE management specialist Maia Waste has bought the first Cat G308 demolition and sorting grapple in the UK from Finning.
The product features a slim design with specially designed pins, vertically perforated side plates, and a ‘robust’ bolt-on cutting edge. It has been designed for matched worktool and machine performance, and is described as the widest demolition and sorting grab in the class.
Helen Day, building construction products product manager at Finning, said, “We were in constant contact with both the team at Caterpillar and Maia Waste to ensure smooth progression of the order and timely receipt of the machine and work tool. The Cat G318, the big brother to the Cat G308, is an extremely popular tool across general construction industries, so the introduction of the smaller unit means a paralleled capability is now available for smaller machines and operations.”
Paul Noble, MD at Maia Waste, added, “Thanks to the finance deal we were able to get our hands on the machine and tool as soon as it was available in the UK. Plus, we’ve managed to save a couple of thousand pounds by hiring a machine and grapple in until the new one was available. We’re so pleased, we’re already in talks with Finning to buy a Cat 302.7CR following the success of this deal.”
