“The quality and reliability of our existing CASE fleet was the driver behind our decision to purchase these 12 excavators,” states Gareth Ruttle, director, Ruttle Plant Hire, whose operations include a successful aggregates recycling business.
“We operate a large fleet of premium machines, all under two-years old, and due to positive feedback from customers and operators we are beginning to invest more heavily in CASE machines. We know that these new machines will deliver the level of performance, efficiency and reliability that we’ve come to expect from CASE,” he goes on to say. “This large order was handled seamlessly by Dennis Barnfield Ltd. and that was a huge bonus, meaning the process from procurement to delivery was quick and simple.”
The 12 machines, which include several quarry application-suited models, comprise:
• Four CASE CX130D excavators
• Four CASE CX210D excavators
• Two CASE CX300D excavators
• One CASE CX350D excavator
• One CASE CX370D excavator
Of these, the CX350D and CX370D are running the recently introduced Stage V engines, while the remaining excavators are all Stage IV Final. In addition to the 12 machines outlined above, Ruttle also took an order for six CASE CX210D excavators late last year and several CASE CX80C models earlier this year.
“We are delighted to have established such a strong and trusted relationship with Ruttle Plant Hire,” says Mal Mackay, sales director, Dennis Barnfield Ltd. “Being able to co-ordinate an order of this size for a key customer demonstrates both our strengths as a dealership and the efficiency of the CASE manufacturing and shipping process. We delivered the machines when the customer needed them, without delay, and the whole process ran smoothly from start to finish.
“Initial feedback on this latest order has been excellent, with both us and Ruttle looking to grow the relationship even further in the coming months,” Mackay concludes.
“It’s great to hear such praise of CASE machines from both our customers and dealers. Ruttle has formed a relationship with Dennis Barnfield Ltd. based on the strength of the CASE brand and the power and efficiency of our machines, we all hope that this relationship continues to grow,” says Anthony Bouvié, business director Northern Europe, CASE Construction Equipment.
“The excavator line is an important part of our fleet and one in which we continue to invest significant development resources. It’s good to see that our efforts are being acknowledged and praised by our customers,” concludes Bouvié.
