Richardson's the Yorkshire based hauliers who specialise in the transport of foodstuffs are putting York Envoy grp vans in to service.
Richardsons say the wipe clean grp panels make it ideal for the carriage of foodstuffs, especially in the light of current EEC proposals. _ The Envoy's extra internal width, 2440mm, achieved by the intergral design of the 150mm deep steel kickstrip, allows Richardson's an additional 56cu ft for their high volume, low weight cargoes. The side by side loading of metric pallets is, therefore, possible with six inches of protection around the vulnerable floor area whilst any damage to perishable care due to roping and sheetin eliminated.
The roof is one-pi stressed aluminium with r bows, a raised rear header full height loading, squared interior corners and a i width pick-up plate. The fl is half-lapped laminated ha wood over 1-be crossmembers at 305r (12in) centres and the susp sion is York's own ES2 tand monoleaf.
Richardson's serv operates between London a their headquarters in Birki shaw, Yorkshire, through( the night taking fruits a vegetables from Covent G. den to wholesalers through( Yorkshire.
