United Kingdom-The British Company of Flame and Vehicle Recovery Services Alpha Recovery has received its first high-specification Mercedes-Benz Arocs through Bell Truck and Van.
The model will be the new cornerstone of the company’s operations, which already considers the acquisition of a second unit to expand its expanding fleet.
Headquartered in the United Kingdom and operating in regions such as Northumberland, Tyneside, Wearside, County Durham, Teesside and North Yorkshire, Alpha Recovery offers 24h solutions for private and commercial customers. The company has more than 36 vehicles in its fleet, prepared for missions such as heavy recovery, redemption of tumbled trucks with air pillows, off-road operations, bus transportation and vans, as well as winches for machines and road construction contracts.
Power and technology
The purchased Arocs has a 15.6 -liter engine, with 627 hp and 3,000 nm of torque, 8 × 4 configuration – ideal for redemption of large trailer trucks. It is equipped with the Mercedes-Benz Powershift automated 12-speed and selectable driving modes, including balance and reverse work function.
The truck also received a Falkom FAW25000 winch system, recognized for reliability in modern heavy recovery operations.
Michael Burke of Alpha Recovery highlighted the performance of the new vehicle:
“We chose Arocs due to our excellent Mercedes vehicles. This truck needed to meet serious demands – and exceeded expectations. Performance, technology, driver comfort, and engine braking are excellent. It also offers a fuel return that we didn’t see in other manufacturers.”
With challenging land operations and high pressure scenarios, Alpha found in Arocs a reliable solution to heavy loads, bringing its operational capacity to a new level.
