Belgrade Insulations builds on Fraikin, DAF and FORS08 February 2017

Belgrade Insulations has signed a seven-year full-service contract hire deal with Fraikin, to supplying an additional two 26-tonne DAF curtainside trucks, each with a rear truck-mounted forklift.

Each of Belgrade’s new rigids has also been fitted with an Aztec low-level window on the passenger side to give drivers improved blind-spot visibility.

They also have reversing and near-side cameras – a new feature for Belgrade Insulations’ vehicles – to ensure cyclists and pedestrians are in full view of the driver.

Both trucks have been accredited for FORS (Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme) and

“We’ve worked with a number of contract hire providers and have often found they’re unable to deliver on their promises,” comments Alex Khan, managing director at Belgrade Insulations.

“Dealing with Fraikin has been a breath of fresh air – they have consistently gone above and beyond to deliver, which has helped facilitate our rapid expansion,” he continues.

“Fraikin very quickly got a firm grasp of how we work, so we hope this will be the start of a long business relationship.”

The new trucks are additions to the firm’s existing fleet and will be based at its Birmingham and Wellingborough branches.

Each vehicle will be in operation five days a week, transporting insulation and drylining equipment to builders merchants and construction sites across the country.
