Tyler, Texas — July 11, 2006 — RUAN recently
announced a six-year partnership with Trane in which a dedicated
fleet of RUAN drivers, trucks and trailers will manage the
transportation needs of the Trane manufacturing facility in Tyler,
Texas. RUAN will deliver parts and supplies to the facility and
transport finished residential air conditioning units from the
facility to Trane dealers in the Midwestern region.
“This is a partnership of two companies with similar values
and customer service philosophies,” said Bob Silverman, vice
president of sales at RUAN. “RUAN and Trane each have decades
of experience in our respective areas of expertise. We are excited
about this renewed partnership.”
Trane and RUAN have partnered before. In 1985, Trane began leasing
vehicles from RUAN and converted the fleet to dedicated contract
carriage a decade later.
Trane, the air conditioning systems and services business of
American Standard Companies, is a leading global provider of indoor
comfort systems and comprehensive facility solutions.
