In addition to these services, DLS has continued its tradition of providing a comprehensive plant hire solution. From excavators and shovel hire to lorries, trucks, screening and crushing and miscellaneous equipment, the range is diverse and geared towards today’s needs. For Dyett Group, which was contracted by its client BAM Nuttall to carry out demolition works to a railway bridge in Bristol, DLS provided operated and non-operated plant along with haulage services to the project. DLS provided a package of plant and equipment to the project including telehandler, compressors, breakers, and a range of excavators including 3 tonne, 8 tonne and 20 tonne plus hammers. “We supplied a number of CPCS operators on the project working across various shifts including night time work during possessions. We also provided haulage and disposal services of the dismantled bridge using our own low loaders. 52 “Using Darlow Lloyd & Sons Ltd on this project enabled Dyett Group to gain access to top quality machines and equipment which were fully compliant with the health and safety requirements of BAM Nuttall and Network Rail. Our highly skilled and flexible operators assisted Dyett’s in delivering the project to a very tight timescale on a compact and very busy site,” remarked Paul. As the business looks to the future it aims to deliver more value added services to its current client base through new technologies and processes. DLS also wants to develop new markets and clients with this technology, such as in soil stabilisation, on a broader geographical base. “As a family owned and operated business with 50 years’ experience we pride ourselves on our ability to work with customers to provide tailored services which are innovative and cost effective with outstanding levels of service and quality,” enthuses Paul. “We will continue to strive to lead the market in the development and application of bespoke solutions for our clients.” www.dlsons.co.uk Tel: 01639 886916 MANUFACTURING AND ENGINEERING MAGAZINE “As a family owned and operated business with 50 years’ experience we pride our
