Allison Provides Automatics to Steel Company in Australia

Marko Steel, located in the Northern Beaches of Sydney, manufactures special-purpose architectural steel structures for elite housing and business buildings. The company has at its disposal 140-260 Isuzu FSR trucks equipped with Allison automatic transmissions to transport the hefty structures to building areas all over the city.

According to the company head, Rob Coote, Allison solutions provided a significant input to reliability and efficiency of the company’s fleet. The automatically shifted Isuzu truck is notable for enhanced maintainability and better maneuverability on the road. Frequently, the company’s drivers behind the wheel of a heavily loaded truck have to come in time to heavy-to-reach construction sites. That’s where Allison products step in. Automatic trucks really can make a difference, when you have to deliver an extremely heavy building component as closely as possible to the installation place. Thanks to highly advanced Allison’s automatics, Marko Steel drivers can perform such tasks much faster and more cost-efficiently than in a manual truck.

Thanks to the fact that the process of gear shifting is performed automatically, drivers can concentrate on heavily-trafficked Sydney roads. Despite their complex design, Allison solutions are easy-to-operate, thereby ensuring higher driving safety.

Since its foundation in 1980, Marko Steel has gained recognition as one of the most reliable architectural and structural steel manufacturers in Australia, providing sophisticated steel structures for top architects on large projects around Sydney. With the development of its business, the company gives preference to technologies in its operations such as automatic transmissions provided by Allison.
