The Reading-based specialist temperature-controlled transport services firm, which works throughout the UK and Europe, chose Carrier equipment for its multi-zone control, which enables flexible trailer configuration capabilities for mixed goods.
“The Vector 1950 units’ high performance was a huge factor in our decision, due to the extremely sensitive loads we transport,” comments Ryan Pulleyn, managing director of Pulleyn Transport.
“We also consistently return to Carrier Transicold, thanks to the reliability and aftercare service we receive, especially from the service engineers.”
Pulleyn Transport has now moved away from dual-refrigeration systems, with Pulleyn explaining that now, with a single Vector 1950 MT on each of his 16 new trailers, the company achieves increased fuel efficiency and payload.
The new systems also replace a previous requirement to install an additional undermount refrigeration unit on trailers as back-up, he adds.
In addition, because of Carrier Transicold’s patented E-Drive all-electric technology, the Vector 1950 MT units effectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions by cutting refrigerant leaks by a claimed 55%, compared to conventional systems.
“The everCold package is yet another example of why we always opt for Carrier Transicold. The service and reliability is so good we will happily operate these new trailers for the next nine years, which is longer than ever before,” adds Pulleyn.
