U.K.-based bulk transporter adds 12 nitric acid tank trailers, refurbishes four anhydrous ammonia tanks in service of long-time customer CF Fertilisers

Suttons Tankers and CF Fertilisers, partners for three decades, recently added new nitric acid tanks to their operation in a bid to boost customer satisfaction and demonstrate their commitment to continuous improvement.

Suttons transports a variety of products for CF, including nitric acid, ammonia solution, anhydrous ammonia, and weak ammonium nitrate, the company said. The chemicals are loaded in Billingham, England, and distributed to customers nationwide.

“At Suttons, investing in our fleet is key,” Paul Blakeston, Suttons head of chemicals, said in a news release. “It helps us maintain excellent service and safety, which we’re proud of. We are delighted to strengthen our bond with CF even further and are excited to see where our partnership takes us in the future.”

The U.K.-based bulk transportation company reports it invested £1.8 million ($2.2 million) in new fleet equipment, including 12 new nitric acid tanks and the refurbishment of four anhydrous ammonia tanks that will enable Suttons to maintain “exceptional” service standards for CF customers.

“The tanker investment with Suttons exemplifies our focus on continuing outstanding service and customer experience, whilst keeping safety at the forefront,” said Cameron Dewhurst, CF supply chain manager.

“It also demonstrates our long-term commitment to supplying the U.K. market, and Suttons is a key partner for us in achieving this.”
