Coatstone Surfacing takes delivery of its first Volvo paver


Coatstone Surfacing Ltd of Swindon, Wiltshire, has broken with tradition and purchased its very first Volvo P6870C wheeled paver for its fleet of road paving equipment.


Joining a mixed fleet of road paving equipment, the P6870C was chosen following a successful demonstration and evaluation. Commenting on the new addition, Managing Director, Jason Richens states: “We were extremely pleased with the machine on demonstration. The overall build quality and low noise emissions are impressive, and it lays an exceptionally high-quality mat. In addition, compared to what we’ve previously experienced, the P6870C demonstrates very good ground clearance, which assists greatly when we are working around raised ironwork.” The P6870C also demonstrates a high degree of manoeuvrability, thanks to the ‘Active Steering’ feature. “A great deal of our work


is laying base, binder and surface course, so being able to manoeuvre in relatively tight confines is another key feature of the machine.” continues Jason. “These were good enough reasons to place an order for the new machine”.


Coatstone Surfacing Ltd was established fifteen years ago by Managing Director, Jason Richens, who has over thirty years of experience working within the surfacing industry. With its headquarters located at Swindon, Wiltshire, the company employs 35 personnel, and covers the M4 corridor and up to a 100-mile radius from its base. ■ Mark Gunns
