O’Kane Equipment Solutions appointed Frontier dealer for Scotland

Under the new partnership, O’Kane Equipment Solutions will represent Astec’s Frontier range of track crushers and screeners, providing equipment sales, commissioning and operator training, genuine parts supply and ongoing aftersales support.

Led by Kieran O’Kane, O’Kane Equipment Solutions brings over 35 years of hands-on experience within the quarrying and materials processing sector.

Having worked closely with some of the UK’s leading producers, the business offers a deep understanding of real-world site operations, production demands, and the challenges faced by operators on a daily basis.

Kieran O’Kane said: “Having worked in this industry for over 35 years, I’ve seen firsthand what makes a real difference on site. It’s not just about the equipment, it’s about understanding the application, the material, and the customer’s end goal.

“Partnering with Astec allows us to combine that experience with a proven, high-performance product range to help customers achieve better results, greater efficiency, and more reliable operations.”

A key part of this expansion is Astec Europe’s headquarters and manufacturing facility in Omagh, Northern Ireland, which serves as the hub of its European operations.

From this site, Astec designs, engineers, and manufactures equipment for global markets, including the Frontier product line a strategically important range built on decades of proven crushing and screening technology.

Damian Power, managing director of Astec Europe, said: “Scotland and Northern England are strategically important regions for Astec, and the appointment of O’Kane Equipment Solutions provides us with a strong, experienced partner to support our customers in these markets.

“Their technical knowledge, industry experience, and customer-focused approach align perfectly with our own values. Together, we are well positioned to deliver high-performance crushing and screening solutions backed by responsive, local support.”
