*BREAKING NEWS* – Our NEW JCB Contractor Breakers Range is out now!
We are very excited to introduce our new range of JCB Contractor Breakers which JCB launched at the end of April. In total, there are 13 models which have between a 0.5 and 60 tonne carrier weight compatibility. As well as working efficiently with our own JCB machines, our new contractor breakers are universal and are therefore able to be fitted onto other brands of excavators and breaker carriers.
The benefits of our new JCB Contractor Breakers Range include:
• One simple scaled design for consistent servicing across the range. Less time would therefore be spent on training your service engineers if they are operating a mixed fleet.
• The JCB machine and breaker is fully approved and compliant with the Machinery Directive and CE marked as appropriate.
• 3 years’ JCB warranty is available with the breaker as standard.
• Refillable auto greasing system to ensure correct lubrication and improved serviceability on the HM080T and above.
• Auto stop feature on HM080T and above to reduce blank firing and protect unnecessary wear and damage to the breaker from an inexperienced operator.
• Stroke adjusters on HM0541 models and above allow the operator to adjust tool speed and stroke length for increased productivity and reduced risk of damage to breaker or carrier.
• Accumulators on the HM026T and above protect the carrier machine from hydraulic pressure spikes which reduces wear and tear on the machine hydraulics.
• Internal control valves deliver higher efficiency and are least vulnerable compared with competitive products that feature external valves.

One of our current offers is: 0% interest hire purchase over 3 years on all JCB breakers.

Tom White Waste’s Open Days
The Tom White Waste open days were held in Coventry on Monday 27th June 2016 and Tuesday 28th June 2016.
The MRF and our JCB machines with Ulrich Attachments were shown in action and stationery.
Our machines that were on display were: two 437WM HT Loading Shovels, one TLT35D 4×4 Teletruk, one JS20MH Materials Handler and one 560-80WM Loadall.
Customers were able to walk round them and view how our JCB machines assisted in aiding the MRF (materials recycling facility – a waste recycling system) to sift and segregate up to 104,000tpa of C&I waste.
Tom White Waste’s MRF pictured above
Ian White, Managing Director of Tom White Waste Limited said: “Since I joined TWW back in 1988, then I have always used a variety of JCB products. Their reliability and durability has always been exemplary. Gunn JCB has always offered me great service backup, support and sales. Our latest purchases from Gunn JCB strengthen that bond and also strengthens our company brand through quality equipment. It’s always been a pleasure to work with them and long may it continue!”.
Tom White Waste Limited was formed in 1981 when Tom White struggled to get a professional waste service for his existing motor salvage company. Since then, Tom’s sons, Ian & Paul White joined the company in 1988 as things expanded and they continue now as Joint Managing Directors. This latest development is part of a £10m programme that will bring a huge increase in processing capacity to Tom White Waste, thus to better serve their existing and new customers.
