Alliance Flooring Distribution (ADL) has extended its partnership with Volvo Trucks, acquiring 11 new FH Aero 460 6×2 tractor units.
The vehicles join a fleet already containing 39 Volvos, including five electric models, with Volvo Trucks accounting for 30% of ADL’s fleet.
ADL operates from four strategically located distribution sites across the UK, with facilities also in Hartlepool, Hemel Hempstead and Newbridge.
The business also holds nationwide capacity to store more than 50,000 rolls of soft flooring, artificial grass and rolled vinyl, plus 10,000 pallets.
ADL managing director, Phil Yates, said: “Volvo now represents around 30 per cent of our fleet, whereas two years ago we had none, so the change has been significant.
“The performance we’ve already seen with our first FH Aeros, plus our FLs FMs and FM Electrics, played an important part in that shift, with each model proving its value quickly and earning the confidence of the entire team.
“Build quality and reliability were at the top of our list of priorities for this latest order, and the FH Aero has demonstrated both since we acquired our first unit in 2024. Our drivers have also given consistently strong feedback.”
IntraLogisteX 2026 takes place on 17-18 March 2027 at the NEC Birmingham. For exhibitor information and visitor registration, visit the official event website at www.intralogistex.co.uk
