Supertrucks Ltd, in partnership with Citroën and Glassex, has just announced the successful entrant to the Win-a-Citroën Berlingo van competition, which the company ran at the recent Glassex Show.





Vulcan Windows Ltd, Hull, is the winner of the prize Citroën Berlingo 1.6HDi 600 LX van, which is fully fitted for carrying glass. As such it is equipped with the latest Supertrucks fully anodised aluminium side glass rack, complete with two Supertrucks System 1 retaining poles and an anodised aluminium roof rack fitted with a front air deflector. Other Supertrucks equipment fitted to the Berlingo van includes front and rear side rack safety markers and an inclinometer.



Paul Walker, Vulcan Windows’ operations manager, comments, “We are delighted to win the Supertrucks equipped Citroën Berlingo. As the company is growing fast we were considering acquiring a smaller van for use in a customer services role – so winning the use of the Supertrucks equipped Citroën Berlingo for six months is a terrific boost for our business.” He adds, “As we already operate a number of Supertrucks equipped vans, we know that Supertrucks makes the best glass carrying equipment in the business, with an enviable reputation for quality and service.”



Peter Wright, Supertrucks chairman, explains, “The Citroën Berlingo is one of the UK’s best selling high cube vans and a very popular choice with companies in the glass trade. Fitted with Supertrucks custom engineered glass carrying equipment Vulcan Windows has gained an extremely versatile addition to its vehicle fleet.”
