TVH EXPANDS RANGE OF SPARE PARTS FOR BACKHOE LOADERS

Parts specialist TVH has announced it is further expanding its range of products for small earth-moving equipment (SEM). TVH already offered parts and accessories for three types of small earth-moving machines (up to ten tonnes): mini-excavators, skid steer loaders and compact track loaders. To this it now adds parts for backhoe loaders. This move enables TVH to further enter the new adjacent market of small earth-moving equipment.

“We are continuously expanding our product range - especially within small earth-moving machinery”, says Joris Tijtgat, Market Management Specialist for SEM at TVH. “Whether that is with new parts, new brands or new equipment. Our in-house experts keep a close eye on the market and respond to all trends and developments within the small earth-moving equipment sector. But our customers’ needs and expectations always come first. That is why we now also offer parts and accessories for backhoe loaders.”

Over 4 Million Known References

Backhoe loaders are equipped with a bucket on the front and a backhoe on the rear. That makes this vehicle a very versatile machine. They are suitable for all kinds of earth-moving jobs in demanding environments.

Joris explains: “With one and the same machine you can perform different tasks and therefore backhoe loaders can be used everywhere, such as in public administrations, in road works, in (agricultural and garden) construction etc.”

By adding parts and accessories for backhoe loaders to its range, TVH can offer more than four million known references for the SEM market. The company processes more than 300 000 orders for the small earth-moving market every year.

Most Parts Available From Stock

“The focus for the development of the range of parts for backhoe loaders will initially lie on the machine makes JCB,

Case, Caterpillar, John Deere, Volvo, Bobcat and Kubota. We proactively search for the best parts and accessories for those makes. As a result, most of these parts are already in stock, even before there is demand for them, and we can deliver very quickly. But when a customer needs a part from another make like New Holland, Komatsu, Terex ... our in-house experts will of course help them quickly with that too”, Joris adds. n

FREE E-LEARNING PROGRAMME LAUNCHES ON VALENTINE’S DAY WITH LOTS OF LOVE FROM THE LIGHTHOUSE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY CHARITY

The Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity is launching their new e-learning programme to help spread some extra love and support within the construction industry.

The charity’s Wellbeing Academy already offers online tutor led masterclasses, seminars and onsite training, and this latest addition is aimed at equipping workers with the soft skills they need to navigate today’s challenges and uncertain times.

The free self paced e-learning modules form the foundations of the Wellbeing Academy and courses include; Bang on Budget, Banter vs Bullying, Managing Stress, Resolving Conflict Understanding Anxiety and Work Life Balance.

Each of the e-learning modules are delivered at two levels. Foundation Level 1 provides learners with an introduction to each subject, the key topic areas and an understanding of the language used in the next level. Foundation Level 2 presents scenarios where learners need to demonstrate their understanding of the subject, apply the skills learned and use logical reasoning to engage and master a variety of problems much like in real life.

With one simple registration, learners can access all of the e-learning modules on any device and at any time. This allows learning at a pace that suits each individual and the ability to pause and return to a module at a later date and time gives complete flexibility around hectic work and home lives.

An easy to navigate dashboard shows the learner’s progress through the modules and reminds them of partially completed courses.

Sarah Bolton, Director of Charitable Services for the charity said, “We are constantly augmenting our charitable services to ensure that we meet the needs of our workforce. The very nature of our industry means that fitting a set training schedule around work and home life commitments doesn’t work for everyone and our self paced e-learning addresses that problem. Studies also show that this style of learning means people are more likely to retain knowledge on new subjects and therefore will feel more confident in applying those skills in real life.”

“We also know that to support a positive wellbeing culture, we need to develop our workforce’s soft skills to help them negotiate the challenges of everyday life and working in what can be a very stressful environment. Our Self paced e-learning modules do exactly that and they are relevant to every person in our industry. Whether you’re a self employed tradesperson, a site operative, project manager or office based, everyone will benefit from developing their soft skills and everyone needs to play their part.”
