Royal Sovereign Lighthouse Demolition

When the job gets tough, the tough get going - with Inmalo supplied high-end attachments from MBI and Montabert.

There aren't many structures tougher than a lighthouse constructed of heavily reinforced concrete built for the harsh environment of the sea. However, as the video demonstrates below, the demolition of the Royal Sovereign Lighthouse by Best Demolition Ltd using a Hitachi ZX890 excavator with an MBI CR80 Cracker and Montabert V7000 Breaker attachments managed to handle this extensive project.

Inmalo are the UK suppliers of MBI and Montabert attachments which were utilised by Best Demolition for this job. A tough job on a very high level of reinforced concrete used for this lighthouse structure recently decommissioned 6 miles off the Shoreham coastline.
