Why 20-Ton Excavators? Large Project Powerhouse

The 20-25 ton excavator class is the workhorse of Malaysia’s large infrastructure projects. From highway construction to mass rapid transit development, these machines deliver the power, reach, and capacity needed for government infrastructure and commercial megaprojects.

Typical 20-Ton Excavator Applications: • Highway and expressway construction • Mass rapid transit (MRT/LRT) excavation • Large-scale earthmoving (housing developments, townships) • Dam and reservoir construction • Industrial park development • Mining and quarry operations

Traditional Financing vs. 0% Down Payment

Scenario: RM600,000 Komatsu PC200-11 (20-Ton)

Traditional Financing (20% Down Payment): • Down payment required: RM120,000 • Financed amount: RM480,000 • Monthly installment (7 years, 5%): RM6,800 • Cash tied up immediately: RM120,000

0% Down Payment (Ing Heng Credit): • Down payment required: RM0 • Financed amount: RM600,000 • Monthly installment (7 years, 5%): RM8,500 • Cash preserved: RM120,000 Use Preserved RM120,000 For:

Hire 3 operators: RM18,000/month (6 months coverage) - Fuel and maintenance fund: RM40,000 (4 months) - Mobilization (transport, logistics): RM20,000 - Project deposit/bond: RM30,000 - Working capital reserve: RM12,000

The RM120,000 Infrastructure Project Fund

Large infrastructure projects require significant mobilization:

Transport & Logistics: RM20,000 (move machine to site, return transport)
Site Mobilization: RM15,000 (site setup, amenities, safety equipment)
Operator Hiring: RM18,000 × 3 operators = RM54,000 (3 months)
Fuel Reserve: RM25,000 (first month of high-intensity operation)
Maintenance Reserve: RM6,000 (unexpected repairs, spare parts)

Total: RM120,000 fully deployed to secure and execute first infrastructure contract. Without 0% down payment, you’d struggle to mobilize for large projects.

Real Contractor Success: 20-Ton Upgrade

From 10-Ton to 20-Ton: Infrastructure Leap

“Started 2018 with 3-ton mini excavator. Residential work. 2020: upgraded to 10-ton Hitachi ZX130. Commercial projects. RM40,000-RM60,000 monthly revenue. Profitable but wanted larger contracts. 2022: tendered for highway earthmoving package. Won contract—RM1.2 million for 8 months. Needed 20-ton excavator. Financed RM580,000 Komatsu PC200 with Ing Heng (0% down). RM8,300/month. Used preserved RM116,000 for mobilization, hiring 2 operators, fuel reserve. Highway project: RM150,000 monthly revenue. Net profit: RM50,000+ monthly. Machine paid in 12 months during project. 2023: added second 20-ton excavator. Fleet: 2×20-ton, 1×10-ton, 2×3-ton. Monthly revenue RM200,000+. 2024: secured MRT station excavation package (RM3.5 million). 2025: tendering for expressway project (RM8 million). 0% down payment made 20-ton upgrade possible without draining cash needed for project mobilization. Large infrastructure requires substantial working capital—0% down preserved it.” — Sallehuddin bin Kassim, Infrastructure Contractor (Klang Valley)
