Meulenmeesters kicks off 2025 with a new DX160W-7

27 March 2026

In Brabant Venhorst, Municipality Boekel, we delivered the very first Develon mobile excavator in this fresh new year. We were able to do this at our new customer Meulenmeesters Grondwerk & Sierbestrating , who ordered a brand new excavator from us.

This new machine is now fully operational and they also took some nice pictures of it from Meulenmeesters. Even with a bit of sun in the picture, something that turned out to be rare around New Year's Eve, but especially for these pictures the sun started to shine just like the machine ;) The pictures taken can of course be found at the bottom of this message.

We were able to make Meulenmeesters happy with a beautiful DX160W-7 mobile excavator to be precise and we were able to build some options on it:

  • engcon quick coupler and a detachable grab;
  • DropsaVET ((formerly Wiejelo) grease lubrication;
  • 24v plug in the undercarriage;
  • Steel powder coated mudguards;
  • Combination towbar with CE certificate;
  • Window film: blocks 80% of the sun;
  • Nokian Ground Kare tires, rim color according to customer's request: gray.

We wish Meulenmeesters many pleasant and safe operating hours with this acquisition.

A party that, just like us, wants to move forward

GMB is a Dutch family business from Opheusden, Gelderland, that works daily with great passion and pride on solutions in water, infrastructure, and the environment. A company that, just like us, wants to move forward. And that is reflected in the choices they make.

We have been proud to count GMB among our clients since 2025. After initial contact, we set to work together to put together a machine package you can rely on. Not a quick deal, but a well-considered long-term investment.

Because supplying machines is one thing. Ensuring they keep running, that is where it really begins. With our breakdown service (24/7), field service, in-house workshop, and dedicated contact persons, we ensure that our customers, large or small, can keep operating. Always.

The collaboration gets off to a strong start immediately.

No fewer than nine excavators – diesel and electric – and multiple Powerbox 400 battery packs.

Electric excavators from Staad

  • Four DX355LC Electric crawler excavators
  • Two DX165W Electric mobile excavators
  • And four Powerbox 400 battery packs

Conventional excavators from Develon

  • DX260LC-9 crawler excavator
  • DX170W-7 mobile excavator
  • DX140W-7 mobile excavator

What makes this delivery particularly strong is the customer-specific configuration based on GMB's requirements. We will elaborate on this during the deliveries, but one thing is certain: all machines will be delivered in the recognizable GMB corporate colors. The first deliveries are scheduled for the end of Q2.

Long-term partnership

The company visit by GMB was valuable and a great step in the preparation for the delivery of the first machines. We thank GMB for their trust in Staad and look forward to a long-lasting and pleasant partnership, in which we continue to build powerful solutions together.
