SBA's MONTHLY SCOOP  |  FEB 2025

2025 IS OFF TO A HUGE START!

The year has barely begun but we’ve been full steam ahead and hard at work on some major builds and exciting deliveries for our awesome customers.

Our NSW team have just put the final touches on the biggest bucket we have ever built, which is shortly heading off to sunny QLD to help a WA 900 get its job done in a coal mine.  This came straight on the back of a 17m3 customised Woodchip Bucket we recently built and delivered to the legendary team at Southwest Fibre.

Our Sales reps have been all over the country taking orders and, in one case, even stocking the truck to make his own deliveries… can you guess who? Lastly we’ve just celebrated the manufacture and sale of our 1000th Komatsu PC200 Hitch, but wait until you hear the customer’s name!

OUR BIGGEST BUILD YET!

AUSTRALIAN-MADE WA900 LOADER BUCKET

Fresh from our Somersby factory, our largest ever WA900 Loader Coal Bucket is freshly finished.  This 21m³ giant will soon be on its way to the Komatsu yard in Brisbane, ready to take on the demanding conditions of a quarry operation.  An absolute masterpiece in engineering, design and welding, this attachment measures 5100mm wide and weighs 11350kg - a first for our talented NSW team.

 

A ‘RUN’ OF SALMONS

Meet Sam Salmon, who bought our 1000th PC200 Hitch

Some things in life are just meant to be. Others? Well, they’re so coincidental you couldn’t script them if you tried!

Here’s one for the books—our 1000th Komatsu PC200 Hitch, a massive milestone for SBA, has officially been sold. That alone is worth celebrating. But the real kicker? The buyer is none other than Sam Salmon from Salmon Earthmoving. And he’s NOT related. 

Now, if you know us, you’ll get the irony. With three generations of the Salmon family running Salmon Buckets & Attachments, you’d think there was some long-lost cousin connection at play. Just one of those bizarre, meant-to-be moments that make the milestone even more memorable.
