Securefast plc
opens Middle East
sales office
Stiller saves by
switching suppliers
»»Stiller Warehousing
and Distribution, based in
Newton Aycliffe, is a familyrun business with 60 years of
experience in cost-effective
regional and national logistics.
So when refuelling analysis
showed that significant
cost savings are offered by
Dieselink, part of The Fuel Card
Group, it was ready to switch
from its previous, longstanding
supplier.
Stiller ‘s mixed fleet of 60
vehicles, which includes
cars and vans among the
predominating HGVs, are all
diesel-powered and refuelled
using the UK Fuels fuel
card, supplied by Dieselink,
giving Stiller drivers access to
more than 1,000 forecourts
nationwide, including every
major brand, motorway
service stations and even
supermarkets. Savings are
up to 4p per litre on national
average pump prices and up
to 10p per litre on motorways.
Stiller also avoids the
increasingly common network
fees and transaction charges
imposed by other fuel card
companies.
With a single weekly invoice
covering every transaction
for the whole fleet, the gap
between refuelling and
automatic direct debit payment
means up to two weeks of
interest-free credit, while
online account management
means fuel procurement is
totally paperless.

2015 set to be ‘the year of the PSSA’
»»2014 closed on a high for the
Perimeter Security Suppliers Association
(PSSA) with its Annual Conference in
London in December.
Impressive progress during the
year included the completion of the
Verification Scheme – with more
companies and products entering the
scheme, and this year will see even
more products being published; also
the inaugural meeting of the Advisory
Panel which took place at the Transport
Security Expo in London –in 2015, the
panel will consider the future direction
of the PSSA in its quest to continue
raising standards in physical security;
thirdly came the launch of the PSSA’s
Endorsement Programme which enables
specifiers and designers to commit to
specifying PSSA verified products over
non-verified products wherever possible
– in exchange, they have a special
relationship with the PSSA and can use
the PSSA logo.
PSSA is confident that 2015 will build
on the successes of 2014, with the aim
of raising standards in the perimeter
security products market.
