We’re cooking with gas


The success of this year’s Executive Hire Show is obviously causing a few ears to prick up. At the time of writing – and it may indeed have changed at the time of reading – we are delighted to welcome a further four brand new exhibitors for EHS 2023. First up, we have Sutton Power Engineering and VISA S.p.A. As well as manufacturing a range of diesel and LPG generators with such excellent names as ‘Cellmaster’ and ‘Conqueror’, Sutton Power is also the main UK dealer for Italian-made Onis Visa equipment. As such, the two are exhibiting side by side, but it remains to be seen if Visa will also bring along some of its pumps and lighting towers. Next, we have MachineMax, which promises to revolutionise the way that fleets are monitored and tracked. In short, it is an award-winning equipment management platform, which aggregates performance data in a single digital platform to get a better grip of utilisation, idling and other operational efficiencies. It’s clever stuff – which is why the likes of Flannery, M O’Brien and Murphy use it – and you’ll find them on Stand B32 at the left of the main arena. Lastly, but by no means leastly, Atlantis Tanks will be displaying their range of plastic and steel oil, water, diesel and AdBlue containers, and spill control solutions. All with a pleasing dedication to family values and customer service. You’ll find them on Stand J30. This brings the running total to 116 exhibitors already signed up, but it won’t stay that way for long – space is a vanishing rarity in the main hall and there’s not much left in the Atrium either.
