🏡 𝗪𝗘𝗟𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗘

After many months of watching our new HQ take shape, we’re proud to finally reveal the exterior of the new Collins group of companies Head Quarters.

From our beginnings as a family business to the group of companies we are today, we have always believed in reinvesting in our business, our people and our future.

Our new home has been created with exactly that in mind – bringing our teams together and creating a modern working environment that will support our people and operations for many years to come.

💙 Before our teams began moving in, close family and friends gathered privately at the new HQ for a particularly special moment – the unveiling of a plaque dedicated to our founder.

A fitting way for the Collins family to mark the beginning of this next chapter and ensure the person who started it all remains at the heart of our new home.

The building may be new, but the values behind it remain the same: family, people, hard work and building for the future.

And this is only the outside… there’s more to come. 👀

The other week, members of the Collins team had the privilege of visiting The Air Ambulance Service’s Nottingham Air Base for a behind-the-scenes look at their lifesaving operations.

We met the critical care crew on duty – 𝗮 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰, 𝗱𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗶𝗹𝗼𝘁 – and learnt more about the expertise, teamwork and split-second decisions involved in every mission.

Critical Care Paramedic Stephanie Cook, who also looks after training and development at the base, was fantastic at sharing her knowledge and giving us an insight into what happens from the moment an emergency call comes in.

The scale of what they do really stayed with us:

🚁 𝗔𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝟴𝟬 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸
💷 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗹𝘆 £𝟮,𝟯𝟬𝟬 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

A huge thank you to Hermione, George, Stephanie and the wider team for welcoming us and giving us such an insightful look at the incredible work you do.

If you didn’t realise just how much goes into keeping this lifesaving service flying, take a few minutes to find out more and see how you can support them. 👇

𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗦𝗧 𝗜𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗨𝗞 | 𝗝𝗖𝗕 𝟱𝟮𝟬𝗫 & 𝟰𝟮𝟬𝗫

You might have already spotted these three in action! 👀🚜

Before officially joining the Collins fleet, they were put through their paces on the quarry face demonstration area at Hillhead 2026.

We’re proud to have the first JCB 520X in the UK, alongside two of the first new JCB 420Xs in the country.

As some of the first machines off the production line, they arrived in JCB’s iconic yellow – but we couldn’t send them out without giving them a bit of the Collins treatment! 🤍

After adding our signature white, they headed out to site and are already hard at work. 💪

Future additions will be factory-finished in Collins white, so watch this space… 👀

☀️ What a day at Ashover Show! 🚜

It was certainly a warm one, but that didn’t stop so many of you coming over to visit the Collins stand – thank you! 👋

We loved getting out into the local community, catching up with familiar faces, meeting local businesses and giving people a closer look at the different sides of Collins.

There was plenty to see on the stand, including our Volumetric Mixer & Interlocking Concrete Blocks, Volvo Compact Equipment for sale, new Fendt & mixer, Case machinery and our latest surveying drone technology. 🚜

But we think we know who stole the show... 👀

Our Operator in Training mini digger was NON-STOP all day! 👷‍♀️👷‍♂️🚜

It was brilliant seeing so many youngsters having a go and getting excited about the machinery. Hopefully, we’ve inspired a few future operators along the way!

Events like Ashover Show are a great opportunity for us to support and engage with the communities we work in, introduce the next generation to our industry and show them some of the careers and opportunities it has to offer.

A huge thank you to everyone who visited us and to our Collins team for braving the heat and making it such a great day. ☀️👏
