Plastic fantastic: Sprinters deliver on fuel efficiency for National Plastics29 June 2015

UPVC window and door supplier National Plastics has taken delivery of 10 Sprinter vans from Mercedes-Benz.

Supplied by dealer Euro Commercials, the Newport-based firm's latest additions are 313 CDI long chassis cabs, fitted with bespoke bodies featuring retractable curtains on the nearside, by Cardiff Truck & Bus.

"We've tried vans by a variety of manufacturers, but none have performed as well as our Sprinters," says Paul Brough, operations director. "Their fuel efficiency is excellent and the overall running costs are highly competitive, not least because they're so reliable."

The Sprinters' high level of safety kit – fitted as standard – is another factor, says Brough.

Almost half of National Plastics' 32-strong fleet is now Mercedes vehicles and the company expects this proportion to rise in the next couple of years.
