Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

When Trevor Welfare, Managing Director of Chapman Transport says this he means it both ways I Plying between Hastings and Camber, some 15 miles, his two aluminium-bodied tippers must pack in as many journeys per day as possible.

"We work our units hard" says Welfare, "and we need trucks which will stand up to bullying, both on and off the road. These Alusuisse M4 bodies more than match our demands".

But why go for the Alusuisse design in particular ?

The advantages of aluminium are well known. Lower vehicle weight keeps road tax to a minimum. It also means a higher power-to-weight ratio with all that this implies — more payload, better acceleration, higher climbing speeds, lower fuel costs per ton moved, and economical unladen trips.

Less well known, perhaps, are the extra benefits of the all-welded Alusuisse 'M' series bodies. Through expert engineering of a system of aluminium sections, plus careful selection of modern self-hardening alloys, and using the latest argon-arc welding techniques, Alusuisse designers have arrived at a strong tipper body which really does 'take some beating'. The rigid monocoque construction is extremely rugged.

As Trevor Welfare puts it, "My aluminium tippers have twice the life of their counterparts in other materials. I would switch my entire fleet over to 'M' Series tomorrow, but must be satisfied with changing them as capital becomes available".

Investigate Alusuisse '1111" Series for yourself

Chapman Transport is just one of many U.K. businesses now benefitting from the extra profit capacity of modern Alusuisse 'M' Series bodies. Running out-dated tippers may seem cheap, but they could be costing you money by earning less. Is it time you investigated ?
