A decade of innovation

Sometimes factory-made attachments, as good as they are, just can't cut the mustard... or in the case of earthmoving tasks, maybe "cut the soil" is a more appropriate term.

So when bespoke tools are need, it's good to know that there is a company which specialises in making them for client needs.

Scott White, a veteran of the domestic building sector, says it's not uncommon for him to seek modifications to various attachments to enable him to better carry out his construction and land clearing jobs.

Scott manages All Drott Services, a Loganholme-based provider of earthmoving services to the residential market in South East Queensland.

For his projects, the business utilises a fleet of about 15 machines, comprising excavators, drotts, dozers and Posi-tracks.

"Attachments that come with the major brands do not suit all surfaces," Scott said.

"On many occasions, I realised that the implements could be more productive on particular jobs with minor tweaks, but of course the manufacturers do not redesign them just for one or two clients."

That's when Scott looked to Norm Engineering, conveniently based 20 minutes away in the suburb of Darra.

The company has earned a reputation for designing and building highest quality earthmoving attachments for mini loaders, skid steers, track loaders, excavators, backhoes, telehandlers and tractors.

It excels in builds aimed at enhancing the functionality and efficiency of the machines, making them indispensable tools on any construction site.
