Manheim, PA – B.R. Kreider & Son takes safety seriously – both for its workers and the community. Which is why the local excavating contractor recently purchased the newest technology in safe soil excavation: the X-Kavator Hydro-Vacuum Excavator.
The X-Kavator, a non-mechanical, non-destructive technology that uses pressurized water and an industrial strength vacuum, is valued for the “clean cuts” it can make at pinpoint locations, which result in fast, precise excavations, with reduced risk of damaged pipes, wires and cables. Even more important, by using the X-Kavator, B.R. Kreider & Son’s workers can potentially avoid underground utility line accidents, which cause innumerable injuries and countless dollars in property damage every year in the U.S.
“Safety has always been a top priority at B.R. Kreider,” says company president Brent Kreider. “Our Toolbox Talk Tuesdays and Circle of Safety programs have helped immensely in our quest to identify and prevent unsafe conditions, and now the X-Kavator is just one more step in the direction of maintaining high safety standards at our work sites.”
B.R. Kreider & Son’s X-Kavator will be used for projects ranging from underground utility location and potholing, to sinkhole remediation and pipe jetting.
B.R. Kreider & Son, a 4th generation excavating, paving and site management company, is the only local excavating contractor to be certified with the AQC Accredited Quality Contractors Association. With over 180 dedicated, professional team members, they have the resources and ability to react quickly and efficiently, delivering results throughout Lancaster, Harrisburg, York, Reading, Lebanon and the surrounding areas.
