Mixed colours, mixed applications.
A productive fleet to beautify the world at Prominent Paints.
Prominent Paints is a leading South African coatings company with 47,000 employees in 70 countries. To offer reliable services to a national network of over 300 retailers, it needs a strong and efficient fleet – which was supported by Jungheinrich electric trucks.
Challenges
- Harmonising the mixed fleet of diesel, gas and electric forklifts ranging from 1.6 to 3.5 t.
- Process optimisation to minimise abuse of machines and racking.
- Problems with servicing of equipment had to be solved.
Solutions
- Fleet standardised to 1.6 t across the range because the trucks picked only 1.2 t on average.
- Entered the field of SLAs to meet customer requirements.
- Introduced new standards on all electric machines.
- Installed fleet management system (driver behavioural reporting).
Benefits
- A more controlled and efficient fleet for daily operations.
- Scheduled services for Jungheinrich vehicles that lead to fewer breakdowns and better maintenance.
- Cost savings thanks to highly efficient electric trucks.
