Robotic Demolition Services

Why use Robotic Demolition?

Wrecking on a construction site is often a complex job with restricted access and areas out of reach of conventional plant. Gnat UK’s Brokk and Husqvarna robots are remotely operated and compact. They are capable of entering openings from only 600mm wide! They can climb stairways and negotiate awkward spaces.

GNAT UK’s BROKK and Husqvarna Robotic Demolition machines specialise in areas of demolition where restricted access or Environmental Hazard make conventional methods impractical. Their compact design, light weight and high maneouvrability enables access to virtually any worksite whilst the electric power source produces no harmful emissions and minimal noise. Remote operation enables safe access to areas where conventional plant, or hand held demolition solutions could prove impractical and/or hazardous.

Gnat UK’s Brokk and Husqvarna machines have been successfully deployed in many different kinds of demolition projects including:

  • Brick Kilns
  • Bank Vaults
  • Underground Railways
  • Tunnel Systems
  • Motorways
  • Chemical Works
  • Nuclear Power Stations
  • High rise towers
  • Sewage Processing Plants
  • Concrete Works
  • Quarries
  • Mining Operations

North Yorkshire based Gnat UK boasts the largest fleet of Brokk robotic demolition machines for either hire or contract in Britain and possibly Europe. This 30 strong arsenal of electro hydraulic breakers is headed up by four powerful Brokk 330s. Weighing 4.5 tonnes each, and with a powerful 800 joules hammer, the tracked 330 is still sufficiently versatile to manoeuvre into tight work areas, such as the Carnegie swimming pool or the 2.5m diameter tunnel it recently excavated in North London.
