Expac and Carrylift Deliver Together
Expac and Carrylift Deliver Together Carrylift, part of the CorpAcq Group, have supplied two new Nissan forklift trucks to Expac (Preston) Ltd. The new Nissan DX, LPG, 1.5 tonne, counterbalance trucks have both delivered to their site located in Preston, Leyland. Outstanding Reputation Expac is a contract manufacturer focused upon Household, Health, Beauty and Toiletry sectors, with an outstanding reputation for providing quality products, people and service and are the largest talc manufacturer in Europe. They were looking to replace their existing trucks previously supplied by Carrylift, once again Carrylift demonstrated to Expac their ability to meet all the requirements, including outstanding service support provided by their Skelmersdale Service Department. Expac required reliable and efficient equipment for their 55,000 square ft UK manufacturing facility operating a one shift, 4-week rotating schedule plus any additional shifts when necessary. They also required equipment with the lowest possible emissions to allow the trucks to operate inside their facility and their external loading areas. TRI-CAT wins again As Expac has a strong commitment to environmental issues and minimising emissions, Steven Routledge, Group Sales Director for Carrylift highly recommended the Nissan TRI-CAT system fitted as standard to Nissan LPG powered counterbalance trucks. A closed loop 3-way catalytic convertor reduces LPG emissions by up to 99% when LPG is burnt, this was just one of the factors that influenced their purchasing decision. A further benefit of the TRI-CAT system is the increased fuel economy, efficiency and savings gained from the advanced engine management system, reducing costs and minimising environmental damage. Woodland Trust Carbon Scheme Carrylift are delighted to announce that Expac have chosen to purchase the Nissan LPG trucks, through this sale the residual carbon emissions will be locked up and stored by planting trees in the UK. The Woodland Trust Carbon Scheme is part of Carrylift’s long-term commitment to help reduce their carbon emissions and protect the environment. Great Partnership Speaking after the delivery of the trucks, Mark Langtree, Managing Director, Expac (Preston) Ltd said: “We are extremely delighted we have chosen Carrylift again as our materials handling supplier, we have built up a great partnership. Their excellent service support, reputation and eco-friendly equipment have all been contributing factors. The Woodland Trust Carbon Scheme is an excellent opportunity to help the environment and demonstrate our green commitment. We have also been presented with a certificate to demonstrate the area of trees that have been planted which is proudly displayed in our reception area.”
