HYDRAULIC refrigeration equipment manufacturer, Hultsteins, has introduced a new leasing option for temperature-controlled operators facing greater costs since the red diesel tax rebate was withdrawn on 1 April.
“The new finance option enables operators of existing diesel TRUs to fit an Ecogen to their tractor unit from as little £9.00 per day,” said Graham Usher, MD for Hultsteins UK and Ireland. “We can offer leasing packages for three, four or five years to suit operators’ requirements. The fuel savings annually could be in the region of £9,000 to £12,500 per tractor unit, whilst slashing carbon and other emissions by more than 90%.
“Ecogen literally bypasses the existing fridge engine and during transit, it virtually dispenses with fridge diesel altogether.”
