Cumberland Industries drives down fleet replacement costs with the Iveco Daily 4×4

Kettering-based access platform manufacturer Cumberland Industries UK is offering to help utility companies, local authorities and arborists to drive down fleet replacement costs with its new 20m double articulating access platform mounted on the latest Daily 4×4 chassis.

Cumberland Industries had added a Daily 4×4 demonstrator to its fleet and believe this new rugged vehicle and boom combination fills a gap in the marketplace for a cost-effective high reach off-road access machine.

“The Daily’s versatile chassis makes it ideally suited to this role, and its excellent off-road credentials provide a true go-anywhere solution. At just over £80,000 for the complete package, the Daily 4×4 represents a significant saving over some of the pricier off-road commercial vehicle chassis on the market, which can cost around £140,000 when mounted with identical access equipment.  In the current climate there is a real demand to drive down fleet costs, and we’re expecting significant interest in this new addition to our range,” explained Luke Thurston, Sales Manager at Cumberland Industries UK.

The demonstrator is based upon a Daily 55S18DW chassis plated at 5.5 tonnes and mounted with a 20m double articulating access platform offering unlimited rotation and a 225 kg basket capacity. When operating fully fuelled with a driver and passenger the vehicle affords a payload allowance of over 435 kg.

Fleets not requiring the full 20m operating height can opt for 16m or 14m models, which allow an increase in payload capacity to approximately 800 kg and one tonne respectively.
