The 4x2 curtainside trucks replace existing vehicles in the fleet and join on a six-year, full-service contract hire agreement, which includes Fraikin’s MYSMARTFLEET digital platform. Part of an operation that processes 25,000 tonnes of glass and completes 30,000 deliveries across the UK each year, the new 18-tonners will operate nationwide.
Jonathan Bryan, group logistics manager, Clayton Glass, said: “We were impressed by Fraikin’s professionalism and how quickly its team built a deep understanding of our operational needs. From our first conversation the whole process has been simple and straightforward.”
Fraikin’s full-service contract hire package includes comprehensive servicing, repairs, road fund licensing, regular safety inspections, annual MOT testing, tyre management, roadside assistance and 24/7, 365 customer service support – all designed to give customers like Clayton Glass total peace of mind and complete clarity on its fleet-related costs.
The vehicles are equipped with Fraikin’s MYSMARTFLEET platform, which offers data-driven driver behaviour analysis and safety features such as instant crash alerts. In addition, the system provides dedicated compliance support, with digital tachograph downloads and interactive driver walkaround checks.
