😮 Heidelberg Materials UK has taken delivery of 52 new Volvo FM 8x4 tridem concrete mixers! The robust rigid trucks have been built with a specification focused on manoeuvrability and ground clearance to help the firm’s drivers access and work on difficult off-road terrain at construction sites across the UK. 💪 Paul Newton, Regional Transport Manager (Concrete), Northern Region & Central West at Heidelberg Materials UK, says: “As a business, we were one of the first to trial the tridem bogie in the industry, back in 2016, and we have always been very impressed. "The tridems have great manoeuvrability to access our customers' sites, which the drivers really like compared to the standard 8x4 trucks. “The Volvos are also great performers in terms of fuel economy too, which helps our business reduce its carbon emissions and meet its sustainability targets.
