Milestone for Berstchi with arrival of latest vehicle
This new generation DAF 480 FT 4x2 tractor joins the international fleet - ensuring timely chemical distribution across Europe.
Drawing from significant experience with the New Generation DAF vehicles, Bertschi selected the DAF XF for its outstanding efficiency, safety and driver comfort.
Established in 1956 in Dürrenäsch, Switzerland, Bertschi is a leading global provider of ISO tank transportation and value-added logistics services for the chemical industry.
The company owns more than 46,000 tank and dry-bulk containers and operates a fleet of 1,000 trucks, with a strong representation of the DAF brand. Hans-Jörg Bertschi, executive chairman board of directors at Bertschi, said: “These DAF trucks play a crucial role in ensuring efficient first and last mile deliveries within Bertschi’s intermodal operations, complementing the company’s focus on sustainable and integrated transport solutions.
“The New Generation DAF has proven itself to be both reliable and highly efficient. Our drivers appreciate the luxurious and comfortable cabs.
“Additionally, the full suite of the latest state-of-the-art safety systems perfectly aligns with our highest standards of safe transport. Moreover, the New Generation DAF can run on HVO and biodiesel. This is crucial as it gives us greater flexibility in utilising renewable fuels, supporting our efforts towards a more sustainable future.”
