Sleator Plant power Irish market with full Rokbak coverage
Company now providing sales and support in Republic of Ireland as well as Northern Ireland
SLEATOR Plant, the heavy machinery specialists who provide Rokbak articulated haulers in Northern Ireland, are expanding into the Republic of Ireland. With a commitment to deliver top-tier construction and earthmoving equipment, the expansion is set to enhance Sleator Plant’s presence, solidify their position as one of the leading premier plant dealerships across Ireland, and provide customers in the region with greater access to Rokbak trucks.
Key to extending their footprint into the Republic of Ireland is the establishment of a purpose-built €1.2 million depot in north Dublin, to enhance accessibility and support for customers throughout Ireland. Located near Dublin International Airport in the Dublin Inland Port, the facility will mirror Sleator Plant’s current Belfast operations, ensuring that clients across Ireland receive consistent high-quality service and support.
‘Ireland has emerged as one of the leading players in the European Union and the market is strengthening, particularly in the quarrying, civil engineering, and housing sectors,’ explained Sleator Plant’s managing director, Jonathan Campbell. ‘Seeing huge opportunity in Ireland, we targeted a prime location in the greater Dublin area and created a team that merged our Northern Ireland operation to work as an all-Ireland outfit.’
Scottish articulated hauler manufacturers Rokbak, who have recently celebrated 10 years of collaboration with Sleator Plant, say the partnership has been instrumental in introducing Rokbak trucks to customers in prominent construction, quarrying, and mining applications in Northern Ireland.
One notable example is the integration of a Rokbak RA30 truck into Loughran Rock Industries’ operations, a move that has significantly enhanced productivity and efficiency at their Co. Armagh quarry. This partnership is said to exemplify the synergy between Scottish engineering and Irish industry, setting a precedent for future collaborations across Ireland.
According to Sleator Plant, a customer-centric approach has been fundamental to their operations in Northern Ireland and will be seamlessly integrated into their services in the Republic. With close connection to Rokbak’s Motherwell factory and access to the supply of Rokbak RA30 and RA40 articulated haulers, the company says it is well equipped to meet the diverse needs of Ireland’s various industrial sectors.
‘Our expansion into the Republic of Ireland is testament to our commitment to meet the evolving needs of our customers,’ added Mr Campbell. ‘By offering Rokbak trucks across the entire island, we aim to support the growth of Ireland’s industries.’
