ARB at APF 2026

We’re always looking for ways to improve our equipment and deliver professional tree care and vegetation management services. That’s why we were pleased to attend this year’s APF Exhibition in Alcester, UK, where we took the opportunity to explore the latest developments in forestry and arboricultural machinery.

One of the biggest highlights of the event was bringing home a new addition to our specialist fleet: a TMK Grapple Saw, which will be working alongside our Menzi Muck A91F 4×4.

Introducing Our New TMK Grapple Saw

We’re excited to welcome the TMK Grapple Saw to the ARB Tree Care fleet. This specialist attachment will be paired with our Menzi Muck A91F 4×4, combining two impressive pieces of machinery to support our work in challenging environments.

The TMK Grapple Saw brings together gripping and cutting capabilities in one attachment, allowing material to be securely held while being cut. This can help improve control when handling sections of timber and vegetation during suitable tree work operations.

A Great Day at APF Exhibition

APF Exhibition provided a great opportunity to explore equipment, meet industry professionals and see developments across the forestry and arboriculture sectors. We were pleased to finalise the purchase with Nick from NCD Equipment, marking the occasion with the traditional handshake photo! A big thank you to Nick and the team for their support and for helping us bring this new piece of kit into the ARB fleet. Events like APF are valuable opportunities to connect with suppliers, learn more about specialist machinery and make informed decisions about future investment in our equipment.

Continuing to Invest in Our Fleet

Investing in the right machinery is an important part of how we continue to grow and improve our services. From our Menzi Muck A91F 4×4 and Valtra T234 tractor to our tracked chipper, 4×4 MEWP and now our new TMK Grapple Saw, our equipment helps us undertake a wide range of tree surgery, vegetation management and site clearance projects. Every addition to our fleet is an opportunity to develop our capabilities and find new ways to tackle challenging jobs. We’re looking forward to putting the new TMK Grapple Saw to work alongside our Menzi Muck and seeing what this combination can bring to future projects.
