FINNING SUPPORTS GARDEN SHOWCASING SUSTAINABILITY AT RHS MALVERN
Finning is showing support for an exciting new addition to the show gardens at RHS Malvern Spring Festival by donating one of the latest Cat ® next generation mini excavators to carry out groundworks for the innovative creation .
The garden , created around the theme of ‘ it doesn ’ t have to cost the earth ’ has been designed by landscape architect , Michael Lote , and showcases innovative sustainable construction products and methods .
Mike is an advocate for creating beautiful gardens in an on-trend style with an environmental conscience , demonstrating that gardens can be both stunning and sustainable . The garden combines native species and a modern naturalistic approach and uses contemporary and reclaimed materials .
Keen to ensure all aspects of the show garden adhered to sustainability principles , Mike contacted Finning , the world ’ s largest dealer of Cat machines , parts and services , for help sourcing a machine to carry out the earthworks that aligned with the project ’ s commitment to sustainability and the environment .
Following initial discussions , Finning offered to loan Mike the use of the latest Next Generation 1.5 tonne Cat 301.5 mini excavator for use in the scheme . The machine is fully compliant with the latest EU Stage V emissions regulations and compatible with renewable energy sources so can be run on either 100 % renewable diesel or HVO ( hydrogenated vegetable oil ).
