Temperature-controlled distribution specialist, Iceotemp, has grown its fleet with the addition of its largest vehicle to date – an 18-tonne rigid mounted with a Carrier Transicold Supra® 850 multi-temperature (MT) unit. The new truck will boost fleet efficiency and sustainability, taking on work previously completed by smaller vehicles. Carrier Transicold is a part of Carrier, a leading global provider of innovative HVAC, refrigeration, fire, security and building automation technologies.
The Supra 850 MT is fitted to a Gray & Adams rigid body on a Renault chassis and is a new addition to Iceotemp’s 21-strong refrigerated transport fleet. It will complete deliveries from the company’s Rooksbridge depot in Somerset to customers in the London area.
“This is the first time we’ve specified a truck of this size. We used to rely on several vans to make multiple deliveries to the London area, but we can now consolidate some of those journeys into one,” said Paul Gould, commercial director, Iceotemp. “Carrier Transicold is the best in the business for this sort of application, which is key for the variety of goods we transport and because the truck will be clocking more than 100,000 miles a year.”
