Watch our products in action

We purchased our machines with the specification of tilt rotators, 3D machine technology, and height and slew restrictors. We bought these machines through HCMUK and the biggest benefit was that it is a one stop shop, which meant we have no down time with retrofitting the equipment and we could finance the machines through one provider, rather than splitting it up. Another benefit is we go to one place for any service or warranty issues, and we don’t get any downtime due to the reliability of these machines.

“It has been 100% to our advantage that we opted for HCT’s one-stop shop approach rather than using a third party. Jake and the HCMUK team have been so impressive, and the whole process – from specification to installation and training – has been outstanding. “Everyone has dedicated their time and effort to answer our questions, and ensure we are happy and understood all aspects of the operation. We’ve really appreciated this excellent service, which is a different league to anything we’ve experienced before! We are so pleased that we have had the same HCT systems retrofitted on to one of our older excavators.”
