What does the industry want?

Clayton Equipment is proud to announce the launch of a revised Research and Development strategy for 2008. 

Traditionally we have identified our own R&D needs for our products.  2008 marks the announcement of a new concept whereby the R&D projects to be completed by Clayton will be those which have been suggested from our clients.

Therefore, if you have ideas for the development of our rail haulage products then please contact us with your suggestions.  If we choose to develop your suggestion then you will be informed of the progress of the project and will be invited to Clayton on completion.
