Really impressed with both the installation and the team, they were fantastic.
"The Transdek lift was such a huge improvement on our existing equipment that we immediately ordered another"
“The entire project was managed seamlessly and quickly. The new extension with V2G lift has significantly improved our operational efficiency and can easily handle our planned growth.”
“We are particularly impressed with the simple one-day installation, along with the loading speed and efficiency of the Transdek lifts. With its unique features the lifts are the ideal loading solution for our own innovative double deck trailers, which set new standards for the industry.
“From the start the Transdek team fully understood our requirements and we can now very efficiently load our fleet of double deck vehicles, which is key to our aim of reducing the number of deliveries we make and carbon footprint.”
“We have also been very impressed with Transdek’s flexible approach to installation as it was vital that they could work around our needs throughout the whole process to make the integration of the new lifts as seamless as possible and to minimise on-site disruption.”
“Transdek’s trailers have allowed us to reduce the primary transport profile by 25 trunks per week by using the additional floor space and weight capacity more effectively”
“With the introduction of Transdek’s innovative Wedge trailer we are aiming to save on average 1,092 trunks a year, which would cut up to 348,000km (216,000 miles) from our routes.”
“Transdek’s project management has been outstanding throughout the design and build process. From planning yard gradients, with the project architect, to finished installation and commissioning, I have been extremely impressed with the company’s professionalism and efficiency.
“For double deck vehicle unloading, Transdek’s lifts are the best bit of equipment on the market and have significantly speeded up the unloading of delivery cages by providing a direct run-through to the bottom deck of our trailers.”
“Transdek’s V2G lifts have significantly enhanced our warehouse productivity and increased logistics efficiency. With their engineering and manufacturing expertise, Transdek’s solution more than meets our current and future needs.”
“By commencing two daily Wedge trailer trunk deliveries, we can transport the equivalent of four 13.6-metre single deck trailers on this 216-mile round trip. This equates to saving 432 miles per day, or more than 157,248 miles a year, generating an annual reduction of over 190,000kg CO2 and over £200,000 in transport costs.”
