Bathroom and appliance distributor, PJH Group, is adding 75 new sustainable vehicles to its transport fleet, all of which will be carrying the firm’s new livery.
The sustainable vehicles, a mix of DAF and Renault Trucks, ranging in size from 3.5t vans to 44t articulated trucks, are extremely low emission Euro 6 engine models, bringing a considerable reduction in the company’s carbon footprint, as well as benefits such as greater fuel efficiency and reliability. The new fleet also forms part of PJH’s investment in continuously improving its already high customer service levels, supporting further its growing next-day delivery proposition.
Speaking about the investment, Shaun Berry, national transport manager, PJH, said: “This is the biggest refresh of PJH vehicles ever carried out in a single year. The new fleet will assist PJH enormously in attaining its sustainability goals as well as lowering its costs, through a reduction in fuel use, and reliability.
“With the number of deliveries we make annually approaching the 340,000 mark, and a next-day delivery offering to 91% of UK post codes, the new vehicles will improve our customer service as their greater reliability means more vehicles on the road able to complete deliveries on time.”
