PDM, part of the Huws Gray group of companies, has unveiled a fleet of six new trucks as part of a million-pound investment to increase efficiency and enhance the customer experience across Scotland.
The investment takes the Scottish-based fleet to over 70 vehicles across a range of 3.5-tonne pickups to 26-tonne crane operated vehicles.
The new trucks, all of which are Volvo FE models, are equipped with either 128 or 158 HIAB cranes. With the 158 HIAB crane able to lift 1.85 tonnes at maximum reach, PDM said there is unlikely to be a job or location that the firm’s team cannot fulfil.
MD Eddie Hernon said, “The knowledge and commitment to first-class customer service that the PDM and Huws Gray teams in Scotland demonstrate every day is what sets them apart. However, to maintain this level of customer service, it is vital that they are equipped with the tools and facilities to ensure efficiency and flexibility, whatever the demands of the job in hand.
“Investing in our fleet with these new vehicles means that our customers in Scotland will now benefit from some of the most modern delivery vehicles in the buildings materials sector.”
Sandy Matthew, Aberdeen branch manager, added, “This gives us a more reliable fleet allowing us to give a better service to our customers and allow us to move more materials and cover a greater area to make sure we can fulfil all our customer needs.”
Two of the new vehicles will be based at PDM Aberdeen, two will be at PDM Kirkcaldy, and there will be one each at PDM Inverness and Huws Gray Dundee.
