Molson becomes Genesis attachments distributor

Bristol based plant and equipment dealer Molson Group has been appointed the sole UK distributor of Genesis GmbH attachments for the demolition, scrap and recycling industries. The agreement is a natural one for both firms, as the US-based Genesis Attachments LLC (and Genesis GmbH) were bought out by Japanese company NPK Construction Equipment in May 2019, and Molson has been an NPK attachments dealer for over 15 years.

Genesis manufactures a large portfolio of attachments, including shear attachments for excavators and materials handlers. The Genesis line up ranges from the 620kg GVP 07 shear to the range-topping 25-tonne GXT 2555R, which has a closing force of more than 30,400kN. Genesis shears are made from high strength steel and feature a hydraulic system said to boost cycle times by 30%. Other benefits include a bolt-on piercing tip designed to be replaced in minutes and a dual-glide blade system that accommodates heat expansion when cutting for prolonged periods.

Alongside the Genesis range of shears and multi-processors, Molson Group also distributes a range of attachments including, rotating grabs, hydraulic hammers, concrete pulverisers, compactors and many more from NPK. As well as offering the full range of new Genesis attachments, Molson Group will also offer parts and service for existing users of Genesis attachment customers. The range of attachments will be available from Molson Equipment in England and Wales, whilst Molson Young Plant Sales will represent the brand in Scotland.
