Angel Springs has taken delivery of the first seven units from an order for 15 new Isuzu 7.5-tonne vehicles with automatic transmissions, fitted with Bevan Group’s curtain slider bodies, designed for ease of use and fast access. The vehicles arrived via Angel Springs’ long-term contract hire partner, fleet management group Fraikin.
Curtain slider bodies are tensioned from front to back and have locks at both ends. The trucks have rear-mounted and interchangeable two-metre square panels, which are being used to publicise the latest marketing initiatives supplied to the Bevan Group by Angel Springs.
Technicians from Bevan’s aftercare team take the new panels out to the Angel Springs locations where vehicles are based, fit them and return to base with the removed panels.
Angel Spings national operations director, Kevin Matthews, said: “My marketing colleagues originally wanted to change the vehicle liveries on a regular basis, but I explained to them that apart from the cost, I couldn’t afford to take my vehicles off the road for weeks at a time so the work could be done.
“This is a fantastic solution, though, because the panels look great and it takes no time at all to swap them over. It’s also cost-effective. In fact, Bevan’s production and associated costs for this exercise are a good bit lower than I thought they would be.”
