Was it the carefully aligned, polished vehicles that you spotted from across the floor?

Or the high-tech touch screens, bright lights, and chrome-finished storage solutions you noticed upon closer inspection?

Maybe it was the group of onlookers by the high-roof van hypnotized by another smooth ErgoRack demo?

No matter what pulled you into Booth 5321, it wouldn’t have taken long to notice the precise attention to detail given to the souped-up vehicles, product displays, and engaging Experts covering the booth. After all, an exhibit at Work Truck Week demands that you bring your A-game, as the Indiana Convention Center houses the biggest collection of work truck fleets, manufacturers, and distributors under one roof at the same time.

Here’s an all-encompassing recap of Safe Fleet’s Work Truck Week 2024 presence:

The Vehicles

Safe Fleet has always seized the opportunity to demonstrate how a full suite of products from their brands come together to form integrated solutions in working applications and this year was no exception.

These 4 vehicles were upfitted with a slew of products from Prime Design, American Van, Rear View Safety, FRC, Roll-Rite, and Labcraft to show how Safe Fleet is a fleet’s sole source for outfitting cargo vans, dump bodies, high roof work vans, and utility trucks.

Behind the prominent displays of style and substance is Safe Fleet’s SAAS (Safety as A Service), which provides a network of strategically located centers tending to clients who need installation, maintenance, or upfits. AMFS (American Mobile Fleet Services), Safe Fleet’s installation and upfit experts, can cater to you anywhere, anytime.

The Solutions

Count on Safe Fleet to strut its most advanced commercial vehicle solutions on the big stage. Multiple brands contribute to the Power of the Platform, making it easy to address different pain points on the same vehicle, whether it’s for a last-mile delivery step van or a cable company’s utility truck.

Video and Visibility

Rear View Safety’s systems improved visibility with their Monitor-Only 360 system, enhanced safety for tractor-trailers with the wireless AirVue system, and used proximity sensors to help larger vehicles maneuver in tight spaces.

Storage & Last-Mile

The Safe Fleet booth was home to a high-roof Ford Transit and a Wabash Box Truck, both of which were filled to the brim (or the high roof) with American Van and Prime Design storage, shelving, ladder rack, partition, and last-mile solutions.

In his interview with Commercial Vehicle Pro, Marc Richter, Vice President & General Manager of Work Truck & Safe Fleet SAAS, gave a tour of both vehicles. Watch him give the full tours here.

Tarping

Covering the Reading 9’ Dump Body was Roll Rite’s Tarpmaster 300 with Premium Mesh, an ideal system for single axle work trucks using up to 16 feet of tarp and also available for work trucks with multi-axles using up to 26 feet of tarp.

Lighting

Labcraft showed how useful their LED lighting is in last-mile delivery applications, while FRC and ROM provided efficiently powerful solutions that play critical roles in keeping utility vehicle operators and workers safe while on scene.

Flooring

Legend Fleet ensured safe vehicle entry with their retractable side door step and minimized slip and fall risks with their StabiliGrip Flooring.

The Experts

If it was the vehicles and product displays that drew you in, then it was the Trusted Fleet Safety Experts’ mastery of their respective industries, pain points, and solutions that kept you in the booth.

Alternating between blue and grey for the length of the show, the uniformed members of Safe Fleet’s Commercial Vehicle division rolled deep to cover all areas, welcoming those new to Safe Fleet and cultivating existing relationships. In fact, if you listened closely, you’d find that many visitors just happened to be clients stopping by to show their appreciation for what Safe Fleet has done for their businesses.

These live testimonials may be the most effective feature of the booth; satisfied clients showed gratitude within earshot of potential customers, as the resident Experts offered decades of knowledge and guidance or gave a preview of what’s on the horizon.

The Announcements

Safe Fleet’s Press Conference pulled in onlookers to unveil the two biggest headlines to emerge from within the organization in 2024: the addition of Vango Rolling Tarp Solutions to their tarp portfolio and Safe Fleet joining Clarience Technologies.

Watch Steve Kiefer and Marc Richter discuss the Power of the Platform, Safety as A Service (SAAS), the Vango acquisition, the Trusted Fleet Safety Experts initiative, and the massive potential of merging Clarience’s visibility technologies with Safe Fleet’s safety technologies.

Until Next Year…

The Work Truck Week booth embodies what makes Safe Fleet successful: an integrated platform offering solutions that address a fleet’s every need, installation services that will meet you where you are, Trusted Fleet Safety Experts with decades’ worth of applicable knowledge, and forward thinking when it comes to improving safety for the world.
