Wernick Hire’s investment programme saw £24m spent on improving its fleet last year.

Almost 3,500 new units were purchased, a quarter of which are eco mobile and static welfare units for the construction industry.

To ensure consistency throughout the hire fleet, Wernick has also invested heavily in refurbishing existing units.

The investment follows a similar expenditure of £23m in 2018, which expanded the number of units available by 2,700.

Available products from Wernick Hire include Fusion Pulse Eco welfare units which come with the technology to harnesses solar energy, which reduces the unit’s reliance on a diesel generator.

This cleaner energy makes the units up to 80% more fuel efficient and less likely to break down.

The Fusion Pulse units are part of an array of carbon reducing solutions on offer. Wernick’s popular Greenspace range also includes modular anti-vandal and fire-rated units, toilets and showers and standard eco static and mobile self-contained welfare units.

Managing Director Michael Thistlethwaite said: “It is vital that we offer customers choice, availability and above all quality. As well as investing in our stock, we are continually investing in our people, ensuring that they receive the knowledge and support to offer our customers an unrivalled service.”
