Saints Transport have fitted their vehicles with TISS’ market leading “Easy-Fit Float Chamber” anti-siphon device. The decision was based on the financial savings they would achieve due to the prevention of fuel theft.
Saints Transport’s Managing Director Piers Carroll commented: “I decided to roll the systems out across the fleet because the savings in fuel costs outweighed the costs of the TISS device”.
TISS Sales Director, Ryan Wholey, was delighted with Mr Carroll’s decision: “Saints Transport have recognised what a huge issue fuel theft is. If the TISS anti-siphon prevents siphoning of just a few litres per week, the unit pays for itself within weeks”.
Piers said that he chose the TISS’ ‘Float Chamber’ because it was “the only anti-siphon on the market that prevents skimming of fuel even from the top of the tank”. He continued “I would recommend TISS because they have experience in fitting to a range of different vehicles and their device is easy to fit”.
Unlike competing devices – TISS’s anti-siphon device has a unique ‘float valve’ which allows fuel to flow in but does not allow siphoning out. Since the launch of their new “Easy-Fit” anti-siphon, TISS have sold over 3,000 ‘Float Chamber’ and ‘Standard’ anti-siphons in the first six months of 2006. The new system fits in less than a minute and requires no specialist machinery. Other customers include Co-Op Retail Logistics, Fowler Welch Coolchain Ltd and Exel.
