Fechner Brothers is a family-owned and run earthmoving contractor business servicing South East Queensland since 1962.
With second and third-generation employees, they specialise in creating and maintaining drains, roads, dams and carparks, as well as land clearing for rural and civil customers.
Across the Scenic Rim region, Fechner Brothers has a fleet of seven Cat® machines, including a Cat D6R XL Dozer.
Getting an edge in tough conditions
As the General Manager of Fechner Brothers, Steven Fechner knows all about tough conditions.
"FirstCut is the only edge that will carve out this hard clay like butter," Steven explains.
This level of performance is the result of through-hardened DH-3 and thicker DH-2 steel, providing balanced, equal wear across all cutting edges.
