“Absolutely! We’ve got six sets running full-time, and they’re doing the job.” Alistair said when asked if he would recommend our ramps.

We enjoy providing products that withstand the test of time and keep our customer's operations running smoothly. Huntley caught up with Alistair from Shaw Civil to learn more about his experience using our 6-ton ramps and how they’ve become essential to their daily operations.


Reliable from Day One – Why Shaw Civil Trusts TransQuip Ramps

“We’ve always used them - they’ve been good reliable ramps,” Alistair shared. Shaw Civil use TransQuip aluminium ramps as they’ve been dependable and effective from day one, providing a solid solution for their transport needs. 

Built to Last – TransQuip Ramps Handling Shaw Civil’s Daily Demands

Running six sets of ramps full-time every day, Shaw Civil puts these ramps to the test. Alistair acknowledged the demanding workload but emphasised the ramps' durability. “The only issue we’ve ever had is that they eventually wear out,” he said. Even with everyday use, the ramps typically last three to four years with our rubber tracked diggers.



Maximizing Efficiency – Saving Shaw Civil Time & Money

Alistair said: “Our machines have trucks they work with for each job,” so having the ramps handy means they don’t need transporters for their machinery. This setup minimises downtime and boosts efficiency, saving both time and money every day.

When asked why he chose our ramps over other options, Alistair highlighted their market presence and quality. Adding that the few alternatives he’s come across don’t match the quality of his current ramps.
