MARKET REPORT COMPACT PLANT continued
Avant adds more versatility
Avant Tecno (UK) reports that demand for the hire of its compact, lightweight multi-purpose machines has increased significantly because of the
current financial climate. This demand comes from professionals working in construction, grounds care, forestry, fencing, landscaping, property maintenance, farming, and materials handling, who appreciate the fact that the units can be fitted with many different attachments, from buckets and dozer blades, to mowers and snow blowers. MD Jukka Vaatovaara says that demand for the company’s log splitter and wood chipper attachments has grown considerably as
more people are producing firewood as a cost-effective fuel supply. He adds that, at the Executive Hire Show in February, Avant will unveil several new implements to further extend the machines’ versatility.
