Scania Malaysia Delivers Vehicles in Kuantan - Trucks to Hin Tatt Recycling and a Bus to the PIBG Sekolah Sains Haji Ahmad Shah, Pekan


Hin Tatt Recycling Sdn Bhd and PIBG Sekolah Sains Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah (SHAH Pekan) recently received keys to Scania trucks and a bus respectively. The handover ceremony was held at the Scania Kuantan branch where it was attended by the customers and Scania Southeast Asia Sales Director, Daniel Tan.


Hin Tatt Recycling purchased five units of the G410LA6x2MSZ trucks. These 410hp prime movers offer more than adequate performance and increased fuel savings that can help the company attain optimum efficiency during long-haul operations. These efficient trucks make them suitable for transportation of the company’s wide inventory of steel products.

Meanwhile, SHAH Pekan chose to acquire a Scania K310IB4x2 bus because safety and comfort is a priority for its students. The 310hp bus features a powerful engine with higher torque at lower revs and is equipped with the Scania Opticruise gear-change that promises better comfort and fuel economy whilst reducing clutch and synchromesh wear. Of course, Scania is one of the market leaders in terms of coaches in Malaysian must have also been a deciding factor for long term use.


In fact, Hin Tatt Recycling’s Logistics Manager Encik Rahmat bin Kassim (seen above, left, with Daniel Tan) and SHAH Pekan’s Yang Dipertua Persatuan Ibu Bapa &amp (President of the Parents Teachers Association); Tuan Haji Mohamad Alias bin Chik (pictured below) both cited performance, reliability, fuel economy and safety as some of the reasons as to why Scania was the ideal choice for their operations and total operating economy. They added their decision was the excellent Scania after sales service and maintenance that also contributes to their uptime, something greatly appreciated when it comes to the transport industry. 


The vehicles delivered by Scania Malaysia also come with the standard package of the two-year free Scania Maintenance; two-year free 24/7 Scania Assistance and a ten-year free Fleet Management System (FMS) package that will help both customers monitor vehicle and driver performance, particularly fuel consumption that will assist the customers in making informed decisions.

“We are proud to be a partner for both Hin Tatt Recycling and SHAH Pekan for its long-haul operations and for the long haul, and are indeed very happy that they have placed their trust in Scania to take their businesses toward the best profitability,” said Daniel at the handing over ceremony.


Scania FMS Competition Awards in Kuantan

Meanwhile, the event also saw the presentation of the Scania FMS Competition Awards to Tasik Bintang Transport & Trading Sdn Bhd, which was represented by its director Mr. Tan Say Lim (above, right), for achieving best fuel savings in the bus and truck categories respectively.

The Scania FMS is a total solutions approach created for its customers to achieve the best profitability and efficiency in their businesses. It gathers data from the driver’s performance and vehicle, which is then used together with methods such as driver training and coaching to increase the productivity of the fleet, achieve fuel economy and eventually reduce the cost of operations. 

This is something which Scania Malaysia is actively promoting this time around. The competition is a means of educating Scania customers on what the product actually is and how it can actually help them in saving costs by having a state of the art vehicle monitoring system.

The handover of vehicles was held in conjunction with the ongoing Scania Open Day (till the end of August), which served as an opportunity for staff and their immediate family members to mingle around and see what goes on to keep the trucks and buses profitable for their owners, all to give them an idea about what it’s like to work at Scania and the full picture of what Scania can offer as an employer.

Scania is pushing hard these days in terms of customer and staff relations. Both are important to the eco-system actually and a company that is responsible knows this is what allows for a sustainable business future.
