A transport specialist has expanded its services to hazardous goods after its Hampshire depot joined a specialist national distribution network.

Kinaxia Logistics announced that Lambert Brothers, its depot in Eastleigh, has now become a part of the Hazchem Network, a group that includes over 60 businesses serving across the UK and 27 additional European countries.

The managing director of Lambert Brothers, Eddie Elmslie, said: "We already provide full transport of dangerous goods services for some customers, and the opportunity to join the Hazchem Network, with its proven high-quality customer service offer at competitive rates, is an ideal way to complement our other transport activities.

“It also enables us to apply the skills and experience of our existing operational and customer care teams to new business opportunities and to offer a reliable and cost-effective solution to new clients.”

The company will provide services across Southampton, Salisbury, Andover, Winchester and the New Forest.
