Logistics group makes £10m investment

Global logistics and supply chain specialist Suttons Group has made a £10m investment, boosting its capacity to carry a wider range of liquids and fluids.

The company has bought 800 baffle isotanks and says the investment brings the total fleet to 7000, with baffle tanks outnumbering non-baffle tanks in response to increased demand to move a wider range of products.

Andrew Baird, technical services director, said: “Our success in winning new business and ongoing commitment to our existing customers means we are continually updating our fleet.

“These new isotanks which are being added to the deep-sea fleet and deployed around the world, give us greater flexibility and the ability to carry a broader range of products.”

Suttons, which has its head office in the North West, operates in the chemicals, gas and fuel sectors in the UK and internationally with key business centres in New Jersey, Houston, Chicago, Widnes, Antwerp, Ludwigshafen, Kuantan, Singapore, Shanghai, Tokyo and Khoba.
