Sterling effort as mixer maker shows off revised design

Sterling exhibited its British-made truck mixer with its 8cu m capacity at the show.

Well known for its plant body vehicles, Sterling introduced the mixer to its range in 2020, revising the design in 2021 to give it the fastest discharge rate in the market.

Sterling sales executive Grant Owen said: “One of the main selling points of the Sterling truck mixer is the availability of parts and the back-up of it being a British company.

“Most wearing parts can be with a customer the next day, and if a mixer breaks down in most areas of the UK we can be out to the majority of breakdowns in an hour.

“We’ve built a quality product, and designed strength into the mixer while still allowing it to achieve an 8cu m capacity.”

The drum includes a capping design on each of the blades allowing raw materials to be mixed as well as being agitated.

Sterling has put more than 50 units to work in the aggregate industry.
