A new venture for concrete paving specialist PJ Davidson UK has seen the company take delivery of five new Renault Kerax 430 8x4 rigids fitted with Bay-Lynx volumetric mixer bodies and Optidriver+ automated gearboxes.
Supplied through Renault Trucks distributor JDS Truck and Van, they are the firm's first trucks, and fleet manager Joe Anning says: "The main reason for choosing the Renault Kerax is the outstanding payload capacity of the truck."
And he continues: "The ability to mix and pour large amounts of concrete on the move saves time and makes for a much smoother, more efficient operation. With a maximum 42 tonne gvw, the Renault Kerax stole the day."
For Anning, the fact that the Kerax also drives well was the icing on the cake. "The cab is comfortable, well laid out and the Optidriver gearbox is a great feature," he says.
