This Volvo FMX 420 8x4 is unmistakably part of the SCB Oxford Ltd fleet. Fitted with our grab installation and Palfinger Epsilon crane, and a custom cab and body wrap, it certainly looks the part.
But when you're investing in branding and livery so that your equipment is recognisable on the road, its not enough that it looks great on day one, especially now that businesses are running vehicles longer from new.
Worn out, tired, rusty equipment is bad news, both in how its perceived by your potential customers, and by potential buyers when you come to sell.
Something that looks neglected creates an impression that is difficult to shake, even if all the parts you can't see are well maintained and it is purely cosmetic.
It's why we've spent a lot of time building rust protection and durability into our equipment as standard, including our grabs. Fully galvanised sub frames, a long list of galvanised components, 100% HARDOX 450 bodies, shot blasted and painted bodies using hydrostatic spray guns, and almost everything replaceable without welding.
Your equipment is an important advert for your business, and we want to make sure its sending the right message in years 1, 2, 3, 4 and beyond, not just when you pick it up on day 1.
Thanks to Sam at SCB for his continual support and investment in Kel-Berg. It's our pleasure preparing and delivering your equipment, and we look forward to the next.
