Meet the Tracked-Vac. When the terrain gets tougher, the Tracked Vac is ready to go where the job takes it.

Some jobs demand more than a standard vacuum excavator.

When ground conditions are challenging, access is limited, or stability is critical, our Tracked Vacuum Excavator is built to keep projects moving safely.

Why choose a tracked machine?
Tracks provide improved traction across uneven, soft and challenging terrain, making it ideal for sites where standard trucks may struggle.

Powerful vacuum excavation
With a 4.5m³ spoil capacity and a 4.5m³/min air compressor operating at 8 bar, the machine delivers the performance needed for demanding excavation works.

Built for larger projects
At 20 tonnes, the Tracked Vac offers the stability required for more challenging environments while maintaining the precision vacuum excavation is known for.

Like every machine in our fleet, the Tracked Vac uses non-destructive excavation techniques to safely expose buried utilities, helping reduce the risk of strikes while protecting existing infrastructure.

Trick: Thinking a big excavation job is just about having a big machine.
Treat: 25 years of experience, technical expertise, and the capability to tackle complex infrastructure projects.

Vacuum excavation is about knowing the ground, understanding the risks, and having the right people, equipment, and experience behind the job.

We’ve been around for a while. After 25 years, we've learned a thing or two.

Friday feeling, Pier style!

A whole lot of capability. A long list of successful excavations.

Not a bad way to round off the week.

Have a good weekend, from the Pier team.

Exposing a water main without disturbing what’s around it.

Our vacuum excavation crew was recently on the ground in Motherwell, carefully exposing a water main alongside surrounding underground utilities.

Using vacuum excavation, spoil was removed using suction rather than relying on traditional mechanical digging - giving the team greater control as they worked around existing infrastructure.

When you don't have the luxury of knowing exactly what's beneath the surface, controlled excavation matters.

They might have the certificate, but before a Pier operator gets behind the wheel on site, there’s still plenty to learn.

This week, our newest operators have been getting hands-on with the vac-ex equipment here at the yard.

It’s a chance to build confidence, understand the machines and get practical experience in a controlled environment before putting that knowledge to work on site.

It’s one of those things you might not see when you hire a vacuum excavator but it’s part of what sits behind every job we do.
✅The right equipment.
✅The right knowledge.
✅The right people.

That’s what keeps vacuum excavation working properly on site.

Okay, we had to do it.

New truck.

New paint.

New addition to the fleet.

And obviously... we had to test the horn…

Safe to say, the newest member of the Pier fleet has officially announced its arrival.

Now the fun bit's over.

Time to get to work!

When wheels aren't the answer, go tracked.

Soft, uneven, or difficult terrain can make access a challenge for a standard vacuum excavation truck.

On a recent job, large amounts of spoil needed to be excavated, but the ground conditions meant a different approach was needed. We deployed our Tracked Vac.

Large, powerful, and built on tracks, it combines the capabilities of a vacuum excavation truck with the mobility needed to tackle challenging ground conditions.

Part vac-ex truck. Part tank. All Pier.

The right machine for the job, whatever the ground throws at you.

Making space for what comes next…

As part of works for a new cycle route, our team was brought in to relocate existing fibre infrastructure ahead of the next stage of construction.

When new infrastructure is being introduced, the existing services around it can’t simply be moved out of the way. They need to be located, exposed and worked around carefully to avoid unnecessary disruption.

Our team was able to safely expose the existing fibre services, giving the project team a clearer view of what was underground and allowing the relocation works to progress with greater confidence.

It’s a relatively small part of a much bigger infrastructure project, but getting these details right early on can make a big difference to what happens further down the line.

The machine matters. The operator matters more.

A vacuum excavator is a serious bit of kit but having the right machine for the job is only part of the equation.

Our operators bring years of experience to every excavation, understanding the ground, adapting to changing conditions and knowing how to work safely around the infrastructure that sits beneath it.

They’re the people turning experience, technical knowledge and the right equipment into a job done properly.

When you’re working on complex infrastructure, you don't just need a powerful machine. You need someone who knows exactly how to use it.
