Contract Plant Rental is delighted to have signed a 5 Year contract to supply a client in Kent with a Fuchs 365 material handler for their scrap metal facility.

The Fuchs MHL365 E with a 1.4 m support results in a viewing height of around 8 m. This permits optimum views over the sides of the vessels right down to the floor.  Customers are totally sold on the handling capacity of the MHL365. Day after day, they are impressed with the responsiveness of this machine, which enables precision steering even when handling heavy loads. The handler is equipped with a Deutz TIER IV engine, which has verifiably reduced their operating and maintenance costs by 35% in direct comparison with other competitor machines.

These details speak for the highest efficiency of Terex Fuchs material handlers.
