CS2 Transport has added four new DAF CF 6x2 rigids to its 60-strong refrigerated fleet.

The specialist East Midlands temperature-controlled warehouse and distribution operator has chosen to add four new DAF CF 410 6x2 rigids with dual compartment Gray and Adams bodies. Cooling comes from a Thermo King T1000R Spectrum refrigeration system with access provided via a Dhollandia DH-SK 1500 kg retractable tail lift.

The four units are in service and operating out of the company’s depots in Chesterfield and Nottingham and are expected to cover more than 150,000km per year while on a five-year contract hire deal from DAF dealer A Herring Ltd

Managing director of CS2 Transport, Gary Turney, said: “We have a really strong relationship with A Herring Ltd as the DAF chassis is our HGV truck of choice, however for the first time, on their advice, we decided to switch to Thermo King refrigeration systems on our preferred G&A body specification. We were impressed by the approach that Marshall Fleet Solutions had to our business, in terms of specifying a multi-temperature system that fully met our requirements, whilst the standard two-year Thermo King warranty was a game changer for us. It certainly confirmed to us Thermo King and MFS’s confidence in the reliability and performance of its products.”
