Pioneer Plant to show new Develon products at RWM
Develon dealer, Leicester-based Pioneer Plant Ltd, is exhibiting at this year’s Resource & Waste Management (RWM) show being held at the NEC in Birmingham in the UK from 17th-18th September 2025. Pioneer Plant is the Authorised Dealer for Develon, formerly Doosan Construction Equipment, for Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk and the PE and NG postcode areas of South Lincolnshire. The Pioneer Plant Stand No LR28 at RWM will feature two new developments from Develon - the DX270WMH-7 wheeled material handler and the DL280-7 waste loader.

Incorporating new undercarriage, arm and boom, elevating cab and counterweight designs, the new DX270WMH-7 is built to offer next level performance for the toughest tasks across a wide range of material sorting and handling applications. The DX270WMH-7 offers a greatly improved performance without compromising on dimensions, with a longer reach and a higher lifting capacity, smart features such as a virtual wall safety system and greater cooling pack protection with a reversing fan. To meet the demanding nature of recycling work, the displayed machine will be equipped with enhanced cab filtration and fire suppression systems.
Based around the successful Develon DL280-7 wheel loader model, the new waste loader increases safety and efficiency for the operator. It has a novel design featuring a strong, light weight loader frame that minimises the front end weight of the machine, providing an impressive reach capability to deliver a higher dump height, whilst maintaining excellent manoeuvrability. The super high lift arm on the new Develon waste loader is designed for loading material into high sided containers such as walking or moving floor trailers specially developed for transporting waste.
Pioneer Plant is solely responsible for sales and servicing of the Develon crawler, wheeled and mini/midi excavator, wheel loader, articulated dump truck, material handler and attachment ranges in its area. Pioneer Plant customers benefit from a superb on-site service network, covering everything from emergency repairs to routine maintenance.
