Should you require an engineer to visit your farm for emergency repairs please contact us to discuss your needs.
During this period, some members of staff may be working from home or possibly self isolating, therefore you may have to wait a little longer for your call and enquiry to be dealt with.

Our opening times, for the forseable future, are changing.
Our opening times, from Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 5.00pm, will remain the same. However, we will no longer be open on a Saturday monring. This is a temporary measure and we plan to return to normal when possible.
Coronavirus
We are operating as normal at the moment and will continue to function in this manner for as long as we can.
The safety and well-being of our employees and customers is always our priority. We are actively monitoring the COVID-19 situation and have taken steps to help keep our employees and customers stay safe.

We are delighted to announce our appointment as dealers for Avant Tecno. Avant, a Finnish manufacturer, offer a range of versatile and compact loading machines to suit a diverse range of applications such as agriculture, forestry, grounds care and construction.
With a choice of over 250 attachments, the Avant can undertake a multitude of tasks including mowing, hedge cutting, post hole boring, timber handling and much more. The range also includes an electric model, where emissions may be an issue, and an option to switch to hand drive controls instead of using the drive pedals.

The Avant is a very powerful tool for its size, offering up to 1900 Kg lifting capacity and a maximum lift of 3.5 m at pivot point. Compared with a skid steer, the Avant offers significant fuel efficiency and, due to its articulated chassis, tyres can last up to six times longer. The machines can be supplied with a cab, where visibility is not compromised, thanks to its very ergonomic design.
Our recent visit to the Avant factory was enormously inspiring. Seeing the quality in the build of the product, the range of models and the wide range of attachments was invaluable to set us off on, what we hope, will be a long and successful relationship with the Avant brand.
In addition to sales, we will have hire units available with a selection of attachments within the next couple of weeks.
We are celebrating 60 years of trading as limited company today.
Tom Davies, the founder, started trading back in the 1930’s from a farm about 5 miles from our depot. He them moved to our current premises in 1947. When Gareth Davies, current Managing Director, started working for the company in 1958, Davies Implements Ltd was formed. Today the company is also managed Gareth’s daughters Heulwen and Sharon.
It was suggested that we celebrate the day by closing early, but it was eventually decided we give a £60 voucher to one lucky winner who shares, likes our Facebook page and comments on our Facebook post.
If you have a photo in your archives you’d like to share with us we’d love to see it….keep it clean 🙂

Timberwolf Petrol chipper range – power and progress
Impending changes to engine legislation will affect many machines regularly used by arborists, landscapers, and estate managers, including chippers. An ongoing legislation programme to limit emissions from diesel engines, is progressing with the next step coming into force on 1st January 2019.
Current diesel engines can continue to be used after this date to power existing equipment, but only Stage V diesel, or alternative fuelled engines, can be supplied on new machines.
The new extended Timberwolf petrol range builds on the equivalent market leading diesel-powered wood chipper series, and offers all the features that industry professionals demand from this essential tool in their armoury. Discover the new models below or view the entire petrol range here
TW230PAHB
Based on the hugely successful TW230DHB, this chipper will be the cheapest option but thanks to the 37hp power engine performance will not be compromised.
