Customers of DKV Euro Service in Spain can now refuel at 600 additional filling stations. The additional filling stations are located on heavily frequented routes and at the most important hubs – both inland and near the border. These include, for example, the motorways along the Mediterranean coast and the Portuguese border as well as the traffic junctions Irún and La Jonquera near the French border.

“Since fuel prices in France are significantly higher than in Spain due to the high excise duty, many of our customers refuel near the border,” says Gertjan Breij, Managing Director DKV Euro Service Benelux BV. “At the same time, we have also made our supply network even more attractive for carriers that drive throughout Spain exclusively.”

DKV’s supply network in Spain will thus grow to 4,345 stations. These can be found via DKV APP and the free route planner DKV MAPS.

A packaging supplier has developed a new gummed paper tape dispenser to add to its online offering.

The new machine enables Kite Packaging’s customer base to seal cartons with eco-friendly paper tape, therefore reducing the amount of plastic waste produced from other traditional tapes.

Its manual design makes it ideal for light to medium volume packing operations and its compact sizing offers the ultimate table top sealing solution for small to medium distribution businesses across the country.

This dispenser has been designed with time-saving in mind as its large water tank and fill chamber ensures water is always topped up.
It’s also equipped with long and effective brushes which moisten and coat the tape quickly, thus eliminating the need for a water heater.

Packaging tape plays a pivotal part in safeguarding products throughout transit, gummed paper tape is an excellent option as it provides a tamper-evident, temperature tolerant solution that does not harm the environment.
