Vacuum excavation is a safer, more environmentally friendly and cost efficient method of excavating.
A vacuum excavator is a construction vehicle used on civil engineering, utility, building and infrastructure projects that can excavate safely around live services whilst reducing the risk of service strikes. Fast and safe excavation is guaranteed without the risk of damaging unforeseen utilities.
Vacuum Excavators are commonly used in the airport, highways, rail, water, gas, power, nuclear and housing sectors. They can also be used on tunnel building, waste transfer and disposal, building renovation, tree root excavation, archeology and emergency service and disaster sites.
