Drumclog Plant Ltd

About us

Half a century of moving Scottish ground.

Our story

Established in 1972, Drumclog Plant has grown from a local plant operator into one of Scotland's most experienced specialist contractors. Along the way we've built a reputation for tackling the jobs others turn down, on the soft, boggy and sensitive ground where standard machines simply sink.

Today that means the UK's largest low ground pressure excavator fleet, a growing quarry and materials business, volumetric concrete, full civil engineering contracting, and environmental restoration work, with online materials ordering on the way.
