Clark-Drain's investment in new transport fleet will ensure best possible customer service
Clark-Drain, market leaders in the UK drainage and construction
industry, has once again underlined its commitment to providing
the best possible service to all its customers. The company,
based in Yaxley, has now increased the size of its own transport
fleet in order to deliver products with maximum efficiency
throughout the UK using its own transportation.
The investment in new vehicles is close to half a million pounds
and the company’s fleet now consists of a range of vehicles from
articulated units including one new 17 ton and a 7.5 ton lorry.
Their availability will allow the company to be much more
flexible and efficient with delivery lead times to customers of
all sizes. They will also give greater access flexibility when
delivering to the major distribution centres for Clark-Drain
products. Furthermore, the company’s multi-drop delivery service
will also be enhanced.
Importantly, these new DAF vehicles feature Euro 4 SCR engines
and take into consideration any environmental concerns through
their lower emissions. There is also a reduction of derv by
using an Ad Blue solution to clean the fuel. This engine
technology meets legislation on all new vehicles purchased from
October 2006. Indeed, the DAF vehicles have actually been voted
Truck of the Year for 2007.
Maintaining the high profile and high reputation of the
Clark-Drain brand was an important consideration when making the
investment. The new vehicles have been sign-written to the
highest standard and the sparkling “Clark-Drain Blue “ livery is
a credit to the company and its experienced team of drivers.
“This year we will see an increase in the amount of palletised
drainage products we can deliver ourselves with these additional
vehicles. It is a very exciting move for Clark-Drain and
reflects our commitment to increased growth supported by the
best customer service,” says Gary King, Clark-Drain Transport
Manager. Indeed, further additions to the fleet are planned for
the next 12 months including brand new trailers to support the
existing fleet.
