The firm, which last week was bought by consulting giant Mott MacDonald, has been working with machinery specialist PV Dobsons to help with the expansion and replacement of its fleet.

JN Bentley’s current fleet consists of 30 Kubota machines from both the KX and U-Series. 

Kevin Young, plant manager at JN Bentley, said: “We’ve been using Kubota machinery for over ten years and are very pleased with their reliability and durability.

“It’s a very busy time for us with projects in the building and civil engineering industry thanks to new and extended contracts secured with the likes of Yorkshire Water and United Utilities. We require machines that we can trust to get the job done, and Kubota fits the bill.”

Andrew Dobson of PV Dobsons said: “We’ve been supplying Kubota machines since 2006 and feedback has always been very positive.

“The KX080-4 in particular, one the most efficient and innovative machines on the market, has been a popular choice with customers since its launch.”
