plant hire brand

Bomag

Bomag is a German manufacturer specialising in compaction equipment - rollers, plate compactors, cold planers and soil stabilisers - rather than a full construction equipment line. UK groundworks and surfacing contractors hire its light and medium tandem rollers for asphalt patching, driveway and footpath compaction where a heavier single-drum roller would be unnecessary.

Bomag vs Wacker Neuson

The bridge between tool hire and plant hire. A wacker plate is one of the most hired items in Britain, and the brand name is so tied to the product that people use it generically - which is worth noticing when you are deciding what to rank for.
