The latest addition is based on a 250bhp Scania P 250 DB4x2HNZ chassis and fitted with Schmidt ASC 990 sweeping and scrubbing equipment.
It joins nine other Scania-based vehicles – four jet sweeper tractor units, three runway de-icers, one sweeper and one scrubbing truck – already in service at the airport.
Airside operations duty manager Giles Peeters says the Scania trucks are “operator-friendly vehicles”, adding: “Their reliability has proved to be exceptional over the years, and their ease of use together with the commonality of controls between the various models types in the fleet, make them a popular choice with our operators.
“The addition of the new Scania P 250 rigid with its Schmidt ASC 990 combination sweeper equipment will further enhance our ability to provide the best possible service to the airlines and travelling public using the airport.”
