The EAW City Box is a compact trench shield designed for excavators in the 3.5 tonne and upwards range, which typically have a lifting capacity of around 500kg. It gives contractors using this size of excavator a full-strength trench shield.
It is ideal for confined areas such as city sites and back yards where space for machines is limited.
Our City Boxes are also available and manufactured under licence in the UK. If you’re in the UK and need a trench shield for confined spaces check out the details on our City Boxes.
