The new vehicles will help the business transition away from using freight forwarders, a shift that is projected to yield an annual six-figure saving.
The new ADR-spec curtainside rigids represent a mix of new additions and replacements in Tremco CPG’s nine-strong Fraikin-supplied commercial vehicle fleet. Three replace older vehicles at the company’s Crayford depot – including upgrading two 7.5-tonners – while the remaining trucks will spearhead a new in-house operation in Leicester, providing greater control over deliveries previously managed externally.
The new trucks have been supplied with all servicing, repairs, road fund licensing, regular safety inspections, annual MOT testing, tyre management, roadside assistance and 24/7, 365 customer support – creating a full-service offering from Fraikin that guarantees total peace of mind.
Tremco CPG UK will also benefit from Fraikin’s online web portal, FRAIKinVIEW, which provides a complete overview of all scheduled maintenance work and the ability to track and monitor progress.
Fraikin worked closely with Tremco CPG UK and its chosen body builder to ensure ADR-compliance, allowing the trucks to transport hazardous materials alongside the company’s range of waterproofing, resin flooring, fire protection, glazing, façades, insulation and roofing products. The vehicle specification also included a reduced roof height to maximise fuel efficiency.
