Utilimaster forms alliances with LandiRenzo and BAF to boost CNG conversions

John Forbes, President, Utilimaster Corporation, commented: “With the rise in fuel prices, Utilimaster is offering fleet owners a green solution with field-proven financial returns. We are unique to offer the solution at our OEM assembly plant and offer in-field, on-site installations. Our clients know they have a business alliance they can trust at a time when increasing costs make compressed natural gas an attractive alternative.”

These Utilimaster / LandiRenzo CNG conversions are installed adjacent to the Isuzu NPR gas assembly plant on the Spartan Motors Charlotte, Mich., campus or can be installed at Isuzu dealerships with training provided by Utilimaster Field Services teams.

Additionally, under the second agreement mentioned, Utilimaster, a market leader in delivery and service vehicles, is appointed the exclusive and preferred installer of the BAF CNG system on the Ford F-59 walk-in van stripped chassis. The solution achieved both EPA and CARB certifications.

“Alliances with companies like BAF Technologies provides Utilimaster clients with a professional partnership of project management, engineering and fleet solutions while positioning our company for long term growth,” said Forbes. “The agreement further extends our commitment to offer green solutions that are field-proven and deliver a strong return on investment.”
