Introducing the Latest Addition to Our Fleet: Volvo Aero Globetrotter

At Ashbrook, continuous investment in our fleet is a fundamental part of how we deliver for our customers. For over 25 years, we’ve focused on providing reliable, high-performance machinery to support projects of every scale -from major organisations to independent businesses.

Our latest addition, the Volvo Aero Globetrotter, is a clear reflection of that ongoing commitment.

Built for Performance, Efficiency, and Reliability

The Volvo Aero Globetrotter is a 500hp 6×2 tag axle truck, engineered to handle the demands of day-to-day operations across a wide range of environments. Whether transporting machinery to site or supporting time-critical logistics, this vehicle is designed to deliver consistent performance without compromise.

With increasing pressure on efficiency, uptime, and environmental responsibility, selecting the right transport equipment has never been more important. This addition strengthens our ability to meet those expectations while maintaining the high standards our customers rely on.

Investing in the Future of Transport

Our approach has always been proactive rather than reactive. By continually upgrading and modernising our fleet, we ensure we remain aligned with both industry demands and customer expectations.

The Volvo Aero brings together advanced engineering and practical capability, making it a strong fit for our operations both now and in the future.

Insight from Our Transport Manager

Jay Harper, Transport Manager at Ashbrook, explains the thinking behind the investment:

“Delivering on our ‘on time, every time’ promise requires ongoing investment in the latest transport technology.

Partnering with Thomas Hardie Commercials to introduce the Volvo Aero ensures our fleet continues to perform at the highest level.

With its 500bhp twin turbo compound engine and I-Save gearbox, it delivers strong fuel efficiency while supporting our environmental targets. Combined with our Ashbrook livery, upgraded light bars, and Durabrite wheels, it’s a standout addition to the fleet.”

Designed with Efficiency in Mind

Beyond its power and presence, the Volvo Aero has been selected with efficiency and sustainability in mind.

Key features include:

• 500bhp twin turbo compound engine for high performance
• I-Save gearbox to optimise fuel consumption
• 6×2 tag axle configuration for operational flexibility
• Enhanced aerodynamics to improve overall efficiency

These features not only support operational performance but also contribute to reducing environmental impact – an increasingly important factor across the industries we serve.

A Flagship Addition to a Growing Fleet

Finished in our Ashbrook livery and enhanced with upgraded light bars and Durabrite wheels, the Volvo Aero Globetrotter is more than just a functional asset – it represents the standard we set across our fleet.

As we continue to grow and invest, every addition is carefully selected to ensure it delivers value to both our business and our customers.
