The new pump-over bulk delivery truck can carry and pump from both Immediate Bulk Containers and barrels, as well as transport smaller packs loaded on pallets
A brand-new lubricant delivery service introduced by TransDiesel will enhance the restocking of products to key operators throughout the South Island.
"We first debuted a pump-over truck in the North Island about 12 months ago and, based on its overwhelming success, decided to launch one to assist our customers throughout the Mainland," says Jason Steele, TransDiesel business manager for Shell Lubricants.
"Utilising the pump-over truck has enabled us to make significant operational improvements from an efficiency perspective as well as cost reductions for our customers as they only pay for what they use."
The new pump-over bulk delivery truck can carry and pump from both Immediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) and barrels, as well as transport smaller packs loaded on pallets for transfer to less easily accessible locations.
It’s able to pump three products simultaneously at a high flow rate, offloading large volumes in a short period. This means less time spent on-site and fewer disruptions to the end customer.
The delivery truck is capable of delivering consumables ranging from Shell Tellus S2 MX 22 light hydraulic fluids all the way through to heavy gear oils such as Shell Spirax S2 A 85W-140. It will also be pumping a full portfolio of heavy-duty diesel Rimula engine oils for heavy-equipment users and top-tier Helix passenger car oils for automotive garages and commercial fleet operators.
The arrival of the new truck helps to streamline customer operations, as the lack of drums and other packaging means significant space-saving in workshops. TransDiesel will also offer a remote monitoring system, which is used to ensure customer tanks never get below a minimum level and provides the ability to operate to ‘just-in-time’ principles and order new products for delivery as and when required.
The new, large truck will soon be joined by a smaller ‘around town’ truck for local service, which can operate in tighter spaces, further enhancing support of TransDiesel’s 16-nationwide company-owned branches.
