ARTICULATED hauler manufacturer Rokbak will make the short trip from its Motherwell factory to ScotPlant 2024 to showcase the company’s RA30 and RA40 trucks in partnership with UK dealer Molson Group.
“ScotPlant is our home show, and we always enjoy promoting Rokbak within the local territory,” said Rokbak regional sales manager EMEA Kenny Price. “Being part of Scotland’s premier plant event is an opportunity to catch up with our customers and cultivate professional relationships with similarly home-grown brands and businesses.
“Rokbak ADTs remain proudly manufactured in Scotland, and ScotPlant is a great opportunity for people from Scotland and beyond to come and see how our trucks can help improve their operations.”
Attendees will be able to see the RA30 and RA40 trucks first-hand, sit in the ergonomically designed cab and talk face-to-face with Rokbak and Molson Group specialists.
“With Rokbak at ScotPlant, we are promoting something that’s built on the doorstep, that employs local people and puts back into the local economy,” added Alistair Murdoch, Molson Scotland sales director. “The journey that Rokbak has come on since it became part of the Volvo Group is incredible – both in build and product quality as well as reputation. Rokbak still maintains that Scottish heritage but the evolution of the brand is one we’re proud to support.
“Molson as a company is expanding in Scotland and we want to build relationships across the country alongside Rokbak, which ScotPlant will help us to do.”
Developed with the support and investment of the Volvo Group, the 28-tonne RA30 articulated hauler has true independent front suspension as standard for more control and comfort for operators in applications including quarries, infrastructure developments and commercial construction projects. The 38-tonne RA40 is said to offer ‘high capacity and performance’ for large-scale quarry, mine and construction jobs. Both machines feature the latest EU Stage V emissions-compliant engine, boasting up to a 7% improvement in fuel efficiency compared to the previous EU Stage IV models.
At ScotPlant 2024, the Molson Group has partnered with the Lighthouse Charity to host a series of mental health talks. Each day at ScotPlant 2024, two mental health presentations will be held at the Molson stand, aiming to create comfortable and supportive industry environments, encouraging workers facing mental health challenges to reach out for the assistance they need.
