Romac Logistics takes on ten CNG fuelled IVECO trucks

Distribution and warehousing specialists Romac Logistics has added ten IVECO S-WAY Natural Power IVECO trucks into service, and a further order is being finalised which will double this number.

Romac ordered the IVECO S-WAY NP to operate across a number of contracts, one running store replenishment for a national supermarket chain and the other on trunking functions between major Regional Delivery Centres (RDCs) for a global e-commerce business. Currently, five of the gas trucks will be based out of Romac’s Middleton Headquarters near Manchester while the others work from its Wednesbury depot in the west midlands.

Peter Eaton, Sales & Business Director at CNG Fuels, said: “These vehicles will be running on our 100% renewable and sustainable biomethane fuel, helping Romac and their clients achieve more than an 85% reduction in GHG emissions. Our network of Bio-CNG Stations is rapidly developing across the UK, allowing companies like Romac to make the switch to renewable fuels nationwide.”

The trucks were supplied by South West Truck & Van in Avonmouth on a 5-year IVECO Capital Operating Lease.
