We ’ ve invested significantly in this area in recent times and believe our commitment to this area is a strong point of difference . For example , we were the first company in Taranaki to import grapple forks for our Symons Energy loaders because of the safety and efficiency improvements they offered . In addition , our environmental compliance in capturing waste , hydro-carbons on our sites is positively recognised by local authorities . And our trucks are all Scania , a brand renowned for their safety specifications .” The company considers all these factors to be especially vital in working with their customers because they are operating in local communities .
