Flannery adds scores of new Kubota models to plant fleet

Kubota mini-excavators lined up in a row

FLANNERY Plant Hire has added 97 new Kubota models to its plant fleet.

The haul includes 62 KX016-4 mini-excavators to meet the needs of a utility customer. All of these machines have been paired with an Ifor Williams Digadoc trailer and equipped with a Whites quick hitch and Epiroc SB102 hydraulic breaker, along with a selection of buckets.

Flannery has also snapped up 20 U50-5 midi-excavators and 15 U27-4 minis from Boss Plant Sales.

“We operate a substantial Kubota fleet across a range of models,” said Flannery operations director Paul Hester. “In addition to the KX016-4, U50-5 and U27-4, our fleet includes other Kubota excavators, selected to meet varying customer and project requirements. We continually invest in modern, efficient equipment to support customer demand, while maintaining a young fleet profile. The purchases this year represent a combination of fleet replacement and measured fleet growth.”

Nick Anwyl, key account manager at Boss Plant Sales, added, “Seeing Flannery invest in a further 97 Kubota machines is a fantastic endorsement of both the Kubota product and the partnership we’ve developed together. Having worked with Flannery for more than 40 years, it’s incredibly rewarding to see that relationship continue to grow. We look forward to supporting the team with their fleet requirements for many years to come.”
