What people are saying

“Rheem Service operates a fleet of approximately 90 field service vehicles throughout Australia. Our field service vehicles are equipped with PDAs for data/voice communication as well as printing and card reading facilities. In order to safely secure this equipment in the vehicle we use either fixed mounting posts, or “Surfboards” supplied by Industrial Evolution.

The use of a “Surfboard” allows for non-destructive and rapid install and removal which improves vehicle resale value and reduces technician down-time during temporary vehicle changes.
Rheem Services are in the process of replacing fixed mounting posts with “Surfboards” in all of our Service Fleet. Industrial Evolution has always provided Rheem Service with excellent levels of service and support and we look forward to continuing our relationship in the future.”

The Industrial Evolution Surfboard’s ease of use and flexible design make it the ideal choice for clients who require a non-invasive car mounting solution.

How people are using the Surfboard

One application currently being used for the Surfboard is providing the Fleet manager’s flexibility to secure the devices that protects their assets and ensuring job safety and efficiency, as well as giving security of being able to monitor the equipment provided to drivers and contractors. The solution is clean, particularly with the external contract drivers. They come in with their vans, load up, then they are supplied with PDA already attached to the Industrial Evolution Surfboard. They secure the unit into the seat, plug in the device into the cigarette lighter socket and away they go. When the shift is finished all they do is take the surfboard out of their vehicle and return the surfboard complete with the device back to the Fleet Manager ready for the next shift.
