⭐ Exciting News: We've Expanded!⭐

We’re proud to announce a major milestone for Thomas Plant Hire and the wider Thomas Group.

Today, we welcome Orbital Equipment into the Thomas family as part of our ongoing growth strategy and commitment to delivering industry-leading plant hire solutions across the UK.

This acquisition strengthens our fleet, expands our geographic reach across the southern region of the country, and increases our capacity to support customers with the highest standards of service, reliability, and innovation. The Orbital team brings exceptional expertise, and we’re excited to build on their strong reputation as we continue to invest in the future of the industry

Confident that Orbital Equipment will remain in capable hands, the departing shareholders will focus their attention on Orbital Civil Engineering and pursue new ventures away from Plant Hire. Ownership and management of Orbital Civil Engineering will remain unchanged, continuing under the existing leadership team

A warm welcome to all Orbital Equipment employees, customers, and partners — we look forward to achieving great things together.

Thomas Group – Driven by growth. Powered by people.
