What makes us different

Early engagement - We ensure clients are satisfied through our transparent service dashboards and early client engagement. We aim to be involved from the very beginning of a project, guaranteeing we have a comprehensive understanding of what is required.

Never Harm - We also prioritise the safety of our employees, our clients and their customers by offering equipment aligned with the latest safety developments and initiatives.

Green plant - We also seek to supply solutions with low energy consumption and limited CO2 emissions, reflected in our growing range of environmentally friendly assets that use clean technology. These include hybrid excavators, electric vehicles - with an industry leading CO2 level – and the latest in battery powered tools.

Accreditations - We have a gold accreditation with the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) for the ninth consecutive year. FORS is a national accreditation scheme for commercial vehicle operators. It aims to improve operating standards and demonstrate exemplary levels of best practice across areas such as safety, efficiency, and environmental protection. The Gold standard is awarded to exceptional operators who have met exacting targets and actively promote these standards to their supply chain.

Awards - Murphy Plant won the coveted National 2020 Green Apple Award for Environmental Practices. The award recognises our Solar Smart Site on the LME Welsh Road project which was completed in conjunction with AJC EasyCabin. The Solar Smart Site is a solar/battery hybrid solution that can be deployed in a range of scenarios including large static sites and remote off the National Grid sites. 

In 2021 the team also won a number of fleet awards including the Van Safety and Compliance Award and the Diversity and Inclusion Award.
