It is somewhat rare nowadays to meet a factory manager who so runs transport operations "on the side". Such a man is Mr. . G. Boutle, manager of the Metal Box Co. Ltd. factory at ermondsey, who "took on" transport as a temporary responsility 17 years ago and still carries that particular baby!
There was no doubt at all that Mr. Boutle was fully sold on the rtues of the Joloda equipment installed in eight of his company's ins. They carry palletized loads of empty cans and the variety ' raw materials and components that go into their making, and do not think I should be exaggerating this user's views to say tat the Joloda equipment is felt to be indispensable.
"You just fit it and forget it", Mr. Boutle told me. "All the aims made for it are fully justified; it is as simple as that, and e cost is soon recovered in quicker vehicle turn-round."
The robustness of the Joloda and its freedom from all risks of mrosion were greatly admired by Mr. Boutle. He also paid ibute to its safety aspect, and commented adversely on certain pes of floor rollers which, in his experience, can be dangerous ■ loading crews.
I was impressed to learn from him that some contractors who ork occasionally for Metal Box find it worthwhile to fit Joloda their vans. One such was a furniture remover; clear evidence at part-time use of the equipment is a viable proposition.
Mr. Boutle's experience of Joloda suggests that careful fitting essential when the Joloda channels are fitted to used vehicles. e had experienced some trouble with warped floorboards on one )nverted vehicle, but he was satisfied this need not occur if roperly installed.
Nowadays, any British manufacturer who can break into :port markets such as Japan is either a top-class salesman or his products sell themselves on merit. I gather that Joloda not only sells in Japan but in 13 other countries, too. and its household name users in the UK, many of them on an extremely wide scale, are too numerous to mention. If all users are as complimentary about Joloda as Mr. Boutle, this excellent example of British engineering is likely to be installed in thousands more vehicles in the future.
