Iain Swinson, Finance Director of 3 metal recycling companies; Ashvin Metals Limited, Ashvin Metals (Midlands) Limited and Inglemere Metals (Blackpool) Limited, has used JCB Finance to finance several JCB Teletruks which play a key role in their business operations. “Our businesses operate within the metal recycling industry. We consolidate non-ferrous scrap metal and secondary metals to sell into both the UK and Overseas Markets. We use the JCB Teletruks for loading and unloading large volumes of metal from commercial vehicles.”
We have dealt with JCB both directly and through the Gunn JCB dealership on a number of occasions through Ashvin Metals and Ashvin Metals (Midlands). Virtually all our forklift trucks are JCB models as they are the best equipment for our operations, and we’ve used JCB Finance to fund them.

In a time where it can be difficult to speak directly with a finance provider, Iain works closely with his dedicated JCB Finance Relationship Manager, Alex, when financing equipment.
"He is in touch regularly via phone and email and the service levels are great. It makes it very easy to finance machinery."

The JCB Teletruks were financed using fixed rate Hire Purchase, “Using Hire Purchase has helped as we didn’t have to purchase outright using all our own funds. The rates were competitive, and it assists cash flow.”
