Collins: Two Decades of Excellence
Agg-Pro are proud to have forged a strong working relationship with Collins Earthworks and continue to contribute to their success.
With over twenty years of experience in managing earthmoving projects, Collins Earthworks stands as a stalwart in the industry. Operating from their base in the Midlands, they offer a swift, adaptable, reliable, and professional service that spans the entire nation.
Their enduring success in meeting customer demands, from initial consultation to construction, is significantly attributed to their continuous investment in a state-of-the-art fleet of crushing and screening machinery.
David Collins, the Managing Director of Collins, emphasized the pivotal role of maximizing productivity and efficiency to meet customer deadlines. He stated, "we only invest in the best machinery available in the market."
Agg-Pro’s Technical Expertise
The strategic collaborative work between Agg-Pro and Collins has solidified their position as industry leaders. David Collins expressed his appreciation, saying, "We have built an excellent relationship with Agg-Pro over the years, and they have consistently gone above and beyond to meet our requirements."
Collins and Agg-Pro have worked closely to successfully install a range of machines, including a GIPOREC R131 FDR GIGA impact crusher, four J45 jaw crushers, a J50 jaw crusher, S130 and R155 screeners, and four TS4080 stackers.
Geoff Caves, the Managing Director at Agg-Pro, shared his perspective on the Collins partnership, "It's a pleasure to work with a company like Collins that shares the same dedication to customer service. Our ethos, like theirs, revolves around minimizing downtime for customers to ensure productivity and, ultimately, profitability flourish. We are proud to contribute to the creation of this distinctive fleet of branded equipment, allowing Collins to provide exceptional service to their clients. We extend our gratitude to David and Scott for their continued trust and custom over the years."
Machine Selection: GIPO P131 FDR GIGA
The GIPO P131 FDR GIGA was added to the Collins’ fleet, which features machines such as the McCloskey J40 and J50v2.
Agg-Pro has been working with GIPO machinery for many years due to their sheer power and unique customisability. This allows Collins’ new GIPO P131 to be coloured in their unmistakable blue, which has become their trademark.

The customer is the heart of everything we do at Agg-Pro and this is exemplified through the eye-catching colour scheme of this powerful machine supplied to Collins. David Collins expressed his unwavering endorsement of Agg-Pro, stating, "I certainly wouldn't hesitate in recommending Agg-Pro to anybody in the industry."
Tom Elgin, Sales Director for Agg-Pro, worked with Collins to come up with the best solution to suit their application.
“Dave Collins appreciated the hand built Swiss engineering of the GIPO machine. His company having visited his machine during build saw the attention to detail and over engineering put into these impactors . To date, this has been the most reliable crusher he has ever bought and has since ordered a second for his new applications coming up.
With 30mm liners on feeders - which is more than double that of most other machines - and robust construction, Collins can be safe in the knowledge that the GIPO P131 is ideal for everything from quarrying, to concrete, to recycling.”
Collins are now full members of the National Federation of Demolition Contractors (NFDC) and their commitment to quality and efficiency is embodied by the GIPO P131. The expansion of their machinery fleet has granted them access to specialised demolition D-Rig equipment, ultimately reducing project times and improving overall quality.
Scott Craddock, the Director of Collins Demolition, shared his insights on the Agg-Pro Collins partnership. He noted, "Agg-Pro had always been on our radar. Historically, we used a competitor's equipment but faced challenges in obtaining parts and spares. Since we've transitioned to GIPO and McCloskey machines, we haven't looked back. The strength and performance are undeniable, and with Agg-Pro sourcing parts and spares, it's no longer a concern. Their 'can-do' attitude is a significant asset for us."
