A returning customer. A proven machine. A trusted partnership.


It’s always a good day when a machine goes out to a long-standing customer — and this week we were pleased to hand over another Develon DX140LC-7 to L4 Civils.

This powerful and reliable 14-tonne excavator joins a growing list of Develon machines supplied to L4 Civil Engineering Ltd by Pioneer Plant over the past few years.

We’re proud to support their work across the UK and grateful for their continued trust in both the Develon brand and our aftercare at Pioneer Plant.
