Revolutionising Fleet Operations: Kier Construction's Van Fleet Transformed with StabiliGrip Flooring

Kier Construction, one of the UK’s largest and most respected construction groups, operates an extensive fleet of vans that endure the daily demands of life on a construction site. These vehicles are integral to ensuring the operatives’ work runs smoothly, but they face harsh conditions—mud, debris, heavy tools, and constant wear and tear.

The challenge of maintaining both vehicle longevity and operative safety was significant. Enter Legend’s StabiliGrip flooring, a groundbreaking solution that has revolutionised the way Kier Construction’s van fleet operates.

The Problem: Durability Meets Safety

Construction is not a clean business. Vans used by Kier operatives are subjected to heavy-duty usage: weighty equipment, muddy boots, and being the mainstay of on-site logistics. Over time, these conditions not only jeopardised the vans' interiors but also posed safety risks for the operatives.

It was clear that a non-slip, ultra-durable flooring solution was needed. A solution that would protect the vans’ interiors from damage while ensuring the operatives’ safety on a surface that wouldn’t lose its grip, no matter how messy the environment.

The Solution: StabiliGrip Flooring

Legend’s StabiliGrip flooring was the perfect fit. Designed to endure tough conditions, StabiliGrip’s robust, low-slip surface provided the durability and reliability Kier Construction required.

The flooring’s key benefits included:

• Unmatched Durability: Built to withstand the toughest environments, StabiliGrip protects van interiors from heavy tools, debris, and relentless wear and tear.

• Safety First: Even when coated in mud, dirt, or water, StabiliGrip flooring maintained its low-slip integrity, ensuring that operatives could work confidently without fear of accidents.

• Cost-Effectiveness: By protecting the vans’ interiors from premature damage, StabiliGrip extended the lifespan of Kier’s fleet, reducing repair and replacement costs.

The Impact

Since implementing StabiliGrip flooring across its van fleet, Kier Construction has reported remarkable improvements:

• Enhanced Safety: Operatives praised the flooring for its non-slip reliability, even in the worst conditions.

• Reduced Downtime: Vans required less frequent maintenance and repairs due to the protection offered by StabiliGrip.

• Operational Efficiency: With less worry about vehicle damage and safety risks, Kier’s fleet operations became smoother and more dependable.

Looking Ahead

The partnership between Kier Construction and Legend has set a new standard for fleet optimisation in the construction industry. By combining innovation and practicality, Legend’s StabiliGrip flooring has demonstrated how a seemingly small change can deliver massive results.
