Kite Packaging upgrade fleet with 2 new MAN trucks designed to be more economical and support safer driving.
Employee-owned packaging company Kite Packaging has recently invested in 2 new MAN TGX 26.470 tractor units. The on-board innovative systems are designed to make journeys more economical, as well as enhancing safety and driver comfort, with high-specification driver sleeping cabs.
The adaptive cruise control regulates the speed of the truck and the distance to the traffic ahead, relieving the pressure on the driver and increasing traffic safety. All-round live-view CCTV provides drivers with the ability to see other traffic or obstacles, thereby minimising the risk when turning or manoeuvring. The trailers are also equipped with retracting load restraints and load-bearing inner curtains.
The new trucks can hold a higher capacity of loads meaning fewer pallet miles for the online businesses National Distribution Centre and the latest fuel-efficient engines and tipmatic transmission lead to more power and even greater efficiency.
It is part of Kite’s ongoing efforts to become more innovative in their practice and this is a step forward in the right direction for the employee-owned company. For more information on Kite Packaging and their range of products and services visit kitepackaging.co.uk.
