Second Volvo machine to support high-rise demolition in Korea
The handover of the 2nd Volvo EC750E HR heavy duty multi-use excavator to Beomhyang
A special handover ceremony at Volvo CE’s Changwon battery pack production facility in Korea marked the delivery of a second Volvo CE EC750E HR heavy duty demolition excavator to Beomhyang, which specialises in high-rise demolition in the Seoul metropolitan area. The company already operates a range of Volvo CE machines, including another EC750E HR and two EC500E large crawler excavators.
Jaebeom Kim, CEO of Beomhyang, said his company continues to choose Volvo CE for its comprehensive line-up of demolition machines, all of which comply with Korea’s Serious Accidents Punishment Act (SAPA). Volvo CE is the only manufacturer in Korea offering a fully factory-built range of dedicated demolition machines — a key differentiator in an increasingly safety-driven market.
“Volvo CE's demolition machines have consistently proven their reliability and efficiency on our job sites. The safety features and operator comfort are unmatched, making Volvo our preferred choice for high-reach demolition projects,” said Jaebeom Kim.
Operator satisfaction also remains high thanks to Volvo CE’s user-friendly designs and safety-focused attachments, which are purpose-built for demolition work. Jaebeom Kim was also quick to highlight the importance of Volvo CE’s proactive service support, especially during urgent on-site issues, which is vital for maintaining uptime and project efficiency.
Designed for performance and safety
The EC750E HR is a powerful and versatile demolition excavator with an operating weight of 103,000 kg and a 393 kW Volvo engine. It can handle attachments weighing up to 3,600 kg and reach working heights of up to 36 metres. The tilting cab (up to 30°) enhances visibility and safety during high-reach tasks, while the hydraulically retractable undercarriage ensures stability and manoeuvrability.
For added safety, the machine includes a Falling Object Guard (FOG) to protect operators and the cab from falling debris. A hydraulic modular joint enables fast switching between high-reach and backhoe configurations, providing flexibility for a variety of demolition and excavation tasks. The wide operator view further improves job site awareness and precision.
MyungKwan Lee, Head of Market Korea, Volvo CE said:
“We are committed to producing the ultimate in heavy-duty demolition machinery. Our high reach excavators are designed to efficiently respond to customer needs, ensuring the best possible performance and safety.”
Beomhyang’s continued investment in Volvo equipment reflects the strength of the partnership and the growing demand for safe, specialised demolition solutions in Korea.
