[Job Story] Three Jonsson Crushers at Work in Irish Quarries

In the Irish crushing market, the portfolio of distributor McHale Plant Sales includes Jonsson Crushers, whose range includes tracked jaw units, tracked cone units, wheeled cone units and an electric tracked double crusher. Kilsaran has added three Jonsson Crushers – two L130 jaw crushers and one L550 cone crusher – to its fleet for use in Gallstown (Meath) and Ballinascorney (Dublin).

Now part of the Metso family – whose crushers McHale Plant Sales has distributed in Ireland since 2015 and in the UK since April 2023 – the Swedish-made, Jonsson Crushers are manufactured to meet the needs of those requiring a tracked machine that can be ‘bespoke’ made and specified to operate in a large quarry scenario.

Kilsaran, an Irish manufacturer of concrete and asphalt products, has made a significant investment with the acquisition of three Jonsson crushers – two L130 model jaw crushers and one L550 model cone crusher.

This investment is comparable to the recently reported sales to Mayo-based civil works contractor Wills Brothers and CRH member company Roadstone, Metso distributor McHale Plant Sales reports upon what they term ‘another significant investment’.

Robust, with a production capacity of up to 750 tonnes per hour, the three Jonsson units were acquired for operation at Kilsaran’s Gallstown and Ballinascorney quarries in Meath and Dublin and were added to some existing units already owned by Kilsaran.
