Hewden lands Balfour Beatty plant contract

Hewden has just signed a 12-month contract with Balfour Beatty Utility Solutions to supply operated plant in the UK.

The nationwide contract includes the supply of excavators and dumpers, along with skilled operatives.

Manchester-based Hewden was selected by Balfour Beatty because its health and safety measures closely mirrored those of the construction company, said Donna Stevens, a buyer at Balfour Beatty Utility Solutions.

Balfour Beatty operates a ‘Zero Harm' initiative across all operations, focusing on zero work related health incidents, zero injuries to members of the public and zero at fault road traffic collisions.

As part of its contract, Hewden equipment and any operator or service engineer that is working on site must adhere to Balfour Beatty's safety principles.
