(Don't you think a Freightmaster might be your cap of tea as well?)
If you're satisfied with the performance of your present transport, you ought to read this! The Tetley Tea Company — pioneers in the tea sachet and a very progressive company — were fairly happy about theirs. Then they switched to 27ft Freightmasters. And they realised what they'd been missing! Capacity shot up by 30 per cent — now they pack aboard over 2,300 cases of Tea Bags. And payload has gone up to 14 tons. . . an increase of no less than 2 tons !
Volume and weight capacity — these are the two things that Tetley look for in an artic. and it's just what they get in a Freightmaster. Freightmaster fills a dual role for them — distributing packaged tea bags from the production plant at Bletchley and collecting tea in chests from London, Liverpool and Avonmouth.
Freightmaster is going to play a big part in Tetley's growth programme over the next few years. At one time, tea bags were distributed direct to retail outlets. Trade has increased to such an extent that Tetley's have
established ten regional depots, country-wide, to provide buffer storage points. This system depends for success on the use of big-capacity, highspeed artics to Make an economical proposition of weekly distributions. Tetley's know that Freightmasters can cope. And to gain maximum benefit from articulation, they'll use 2 tractors to 3 Freightmasters. Obviously, palletization is essential. Tetley's Freightmasters will come ready supplied complete with all the necessary equipment
Freightmasters give Tetley's the edge in payload capacity. But that's not the only benefit. Here are two for the pot! One: the single-sheet roof is rivetted outside the load area, and the side panels are double rivetted, bonded and overlapped — that kind of water-tight protection is important to any load, and especially important to Tetley's. Two: the gleaming aluminium side-panels make the perfect background for Tetley's bold new livery.
Profit. Protection. Prestige. You've a right to demand that from your transport. You get it in a Freightmaster ask Tetley's!
