Fairfax Plant Hire Celebrates
750th Thwaites Dumper Milestone
December 2024 marked a significant milestone for Fairfax Plant Hire, as we proudly took delivery of our 750th Thwaites dumper a testament to a long-standing partnership built on shared values of quality, reliability, and trust. Fairfax brought the first Thwaites dumper in 1996.
To celebrate the occasion, members of our Fairfax team, along with our trusted suppliers at BTE Plant Sales, were invited to the Thwaites factory in Warwickshire for a behind the scenes tour and to meet the people behind the machines. A bespoke decal had been commissioned for this landmark dumper, recognizing not only the achievement but also the strength of the relationship between Fairfax Plant Hire, Thwaites, and BTE Plant Sales.
Thwaites manufacture the best dumpers on the market. Their commitment to safety and quality reflects our own company values. Our customers often request Thwaites machines by name because they know they’re getting a dependable, high-performing product that won’t let them down.
Joining Mark for the visit were Rebecca Bryson, Managing Director at BTE Plant Sales, Martin Hazlewood, Fairfax Service Manager, Michaela Love, Social Media Creator, and Adam Taylor, Fairfax Service Engineer.
We were hosted by Andy Sabin, Thwaites General Sales Manager, and Will Redman, Distributor Manager, who welcomed the team and expressed gratitude for the enduring partnership
Concluding the celebration, Will Redman added:
“It was a pleasure to welcome the Fairfax team to our factory. While I haven’t been involved in all 750 machines sold, I’m proud to have played a part in this milestone. I can’t wait to see the special edition dumper out on site.”

This really is a special occasion. The sale of the 750th dumper to Fairfax Plant Hire symbolizes a relationship built on mutual respect and consistent communication. I’d like to personally thank Mark and the Fairfax team for their ongoing loyalty and support.
