Stock Sweepers sweeps in orders

摘要

Gloucestershire-based manufacturer Stock Sweepers made its debut at Tip-ex and came away with a bank of new orders.Sales manager Haydn Buckland said the company scouted the show last year and, with so many of its customers attending, decided to exhibit this year. That decision paid off with the number of confirmed deals struck going into double figures before day two of the show had even begun. One of its latest products is the QuadVac S9400, which is fitted with a 9.4cu m hopper with a twin-discharge system (electric and PTO). Buckland said:"It is a heavy-duty system designed to last as long as possible, so it works harder for longer." The body is fitted to a Volvo FM370 18-tonner belonging to Burcombe Haulage, based in Cornwall. "The mild and stainless steel components that we use are thicker than the road sweeper industry standard to ensure the longest life span achievable. All equipment is precision-fabricated, powder-primed and coated, which gives a durable and quality finish," he added. Buckland said the company had consolidated its operation by moving into a new £3m facility in Cinderford.
