Palfinger Tail Lifts has appointed RLP Distribution to stock and distribute Palfinger spare parts with effect from May 7.
Hull-based specialist parts distribution company RLP will handle all orders and deliveries of Palfinger parts while the tail-lift manufacturer will continue to provide customer service, sales and technical support.
Liam Noone, head of customer service at Palfinger, said: “This is an exciting and important move for our business, aimed at strengthening our ongoing service to Palfinger maintenance and repair agents across the UK. Supply of parts to these businesses will not be affected – indeed, if anything, we are confident the service can even be improved.”
RLP is part of Motus Holdings (UK), which has 69 sites including two specialist truck body builders as well as parts and commercial vehicle equipment operations.
Peter Glover, MD of Motus Vehicle Solutions, said: “We are very confident we can handle the new work for Palfinger seamlessly and, as Liam indicated, possibly streamline it even further."
