Takeuchi’s Baby Duck Migrates to Plantworx 2025

If you are visiting Plantworx 2025 which starts today, and if not, why not, make sure you pop along to the Takeuchi stand to checkout their compact wheeled excavator.

The TB370W – is a compact, road-ready 7.5-tonne wheeled excavator marking Takeuchi’s return to the small rubber duck market.

Previously seen at Intermat in Paris and at the Hillhead Show last year, the first example to be sold into the UK market was purchased by Manchester based Bethell Group who already run numerous Takeuchi machines.

The new addition to the Bethell fleet has been helping to deliver phase two of the Market Street regeneration project in Farnworth, Bolton. The new wheely (rubber-duck) has already proven to be a powerful yet compact utility machine, fitted with a host of site-ready features designed for the utilities/streetwork’s sectors and for larger civils jobs.

It is the versatility of the new TB370W that makes it such a useful tool carrying machine.

With up to 4 auxiliary ports fitted for a variety of powered attachments, the machine can handle everything from grabs, pallet forks, breakers to buckets to get the job done quickly and safely.
