Safe Fleet, global provider of safety and productivity solutions for fleet vehicles, has acquired the Roll-Rite group of companies.
Roll-Rite is a provider of OEM and aftermarket safety products that protect cargo, reduce risks to drivers and roadways and improve fleet efficiencies. Under the Roll-Rite and Pulltarps brands, Roll-Rite manufactures a complete line of application-specific automated and semi-automated tarping systems, motors, controls, and tarps for open body dump trucks, open top trailers and detachable containers. It is estimated that there are more than 150,000 trucks and trailers on the road today equipped with a Roll-Rite or Pulltarps branded system.
According to John Knox, chairman, president, and CEO of Safe Fleet, both Roll-Rite and Safe Fleet are committed to establishing a national footprint of product install and aftermarket service locations to better service all of their customers. With the addition of Roll-Rite’s Service & Install Centers in Henderson, Colorado, Council Bluffs, Iowa; and Torrington, Connecticut, Safe Fleet now has six field locations across the U.S.”
Current management of Roll-Rite will continue with the business going forward and operate as a separate Roll-Rite entity within Safe Fleet.
Knox added, “Roll-Rite greatly expands our capabilities in serving customers in the construction, agriculture and recycling markets.”
