Fleet renewal: 37 new-generation tractor units

In line with its strategic plan, the group renewed the Hurcam fleet over a twelve-month period, incorporating 37 new-generation tractor units from Freightliner, Scania and Volvo, with a total investment of approximately US$ 5,500,000.

The renewal programme also extended to the semi-trailer tankers used to transport sulfuric acid, a fleet segment where safety performance is non-negotiable. In this line, 21 latest-generation Randon tankers were incorporated, each valued at US$ 62,400, for a total investment of more than US$ 1,310,000.

The new tankers carry a markedly higher safety standard, including pneumatic valve opening, digital weighing systems and stabilisation control, among other features designed to protect crews, cargo and the communities along each route.
