The machines, purchased from Stourport-based Murley Construction Equipment, add to the firm's existing 25-strong fleet of equipment. Pink Skips was founded in 1998 with a single 7.5 tonne truck and 20 skips and has grown to currently employ nearly 100 people with a turnover of around £6.5 million each year. The company claims to currently recycle 90% of mixed waste received from both construction and demolition projects and commercial and industrial clients, all within a 25 mile radius of its Shropshire base.

Commenting on the choice of Doosan, Pink Skips operations director William Wellings said: "We have tried most makes of machinery over the years but this time decided to give Doosan a try as not only do we see their equipment all over the place but also for the price, they come with a very high specification."
