What a weekend! The biggest event in the British motorsport calendar roared into Silverstone and Greenplant was right at the heart of it all.


As hundreds of thousands of fans descended on the legendary airfield for an unforgettable weekend of Formula 1 racing, the Greenplant team had already been hard at work, helping build the magic behind the scenes.


From crowd barriers to crane lorries, our event hire and logistics services played a pivotal role in bringing the British Grand Prix to life. It’s not every day you help set the stage for a history-making podium, especially one featuring Nico Hülkenberg’s long-awaited appearance!


Power, Precision & Podium Moments

Whether it’s lifting advertising boards into place or installing the now-iconic podium structure, our fleet of telehandlers and specialist event kit was flat out on site. And in the paddock, our super silent generators kept the energy flowing, powering the heart of the operation without adding to the noise. It’s power you can rely on, and quiet enough to protect the hearing of everyone working trackside.

Fast Laps & Faster Logistics

One of the standout stars? Our brand-new Greenplant logistics van, decked out in a fresh new design and tackling the full Silverstone circuit. Delivering perimeter advertising boards at speed, this van was built for efficiency and even got a little track time in between drops.

As the race weekend unfolded and adrenaline filled the air, we were proud to play our part in making it all happen.

The Race Might End, But the Work Never Stops

Once the final chequered flag waved, the de-rig began - a high-speed operation completed in just two days. Our expert team jumped straight into action, with crane lorries moving bulky equipment and every piece handled with care. It’s precision under pressure, and we thrive on it.
