Mastenbroek's success in putting its home town on the international map has been recognised today! The company was revealed as the joint winner of the Putting Boston on the Map category in the Made in Boston Awards.
Mastenbroek will be exhibiting at the Trimble® Virtual Show, an innovative virtual event, which will be held online at www.trimblevirtual.com on Wednesday 10th December.
Mastenbroek, the UK-based designer and manufacturer of self-propelled trenchers has supplied its first 2021 17/17 trencher. The compact rock trencher was delivered to French trencher rental specialists TP Milhaud last month. It is the 11th Mastenbroek trencher to be bought by TP Milhaud, but the first to feature a Stage V compliant engine alongside a redesigned ergonomic cabin and a new 2.5m swing-out conveyor designed for European highways.
With tremendous sadness we must announce that Mrs Neeltje (Nell) Mastenbroek has died peacefully in her sleep at home in Boston, at the age of 93. A constant source of support to her husband, John, she was much loved by everyone for her kindness, patience and great sense of fun. The funeral of Mrs Mastenbroek will be held on Friday 4 October 2019, at Boston Crematorium at 1.30 pm. Afterwards at The Mill, Spilsby Road, Boston, PE21 9QN.
It is with great sorrow that Mastenbroek Ltd announces the death of Mr John Mastenbroek. Having moved to England from his native Holland, he founded J Mastenbroek & Co Ltd in 1973 in Boston, Lincolnshire. John passed away peacefully in the early hours of Wednesday 11th April 2018 at the age of 97. The funeral will be held at Boston Crematorium on Monday 23rd April at 11.30am. The family has requested no flowers, but donations in lieu would be appreciated in aid of Skirbeck Court Amenities (to provide treats and outings to the residents of the care home that looked after John so well towards the end of his life).
The model 1012D is now EU stage 4 / tier 4F emission compliant, with the first trencher going to work for the Dutch contractor Van Huizen , using a quiet and fuel efficient Deutz TCD3.6L4 engine. For many years Mastenbroek have lead the field in compact self-propelled precision drainage trenchers. The 1012D retains the many options which set it apart as a versatile little work horse. For example soil skirts and conveyor system to remove excavated spoil on sports turf, an off-setting trench head for glass houses and Trimble laser or GPS control for both grade and auto steer.
