Safety second to none
From the design and specification of our vehicles, to the staff we carefully select to be on our team, safety is at the core of Alexander Group.
Everyone, customers included, is aligned to delivering the safest possible transportation network. This means we are continually reviewing and refining how we manage risk on the road, at customers’ sites and in our own yards. The wellbeing of our staff is a key component to our commitment to safety; robust fatigue management and training programmes are the backbone of our business.
In our pursuit of global best-practice standards, we have a dedicated team at Alexander Group NZ. In partnering with Alexander Group, we will custom design a risk and safety management programme suited to your customers, products and unique supply chains.
We are innovative in our vehicle design aiming to engineer as many safety features as possible into our vehicles, challenging our suppliers to improve on each vehicle build. We also partner with our staff in constantly refining and improving our practices and ensuring staff have access to real time data to manage the changing risks on road in a time-demanding environment.
New Zealand’s most skilled drivers and support staff
The skillset of Alexander Group drivers is where the rubber hits the road, providing world-class logistics management while ensuring the safe and efficient transport of hazardous substances. We take pride in our reputation as an elite freight company in New Zealand, rooted in our exceptional driver network.
Contributing to our status as a premier logistics company, we utilise both inhouse and external trainers to provide leadership and oversight. Our rigorous training protocols and development processes ensure that each Alexander Group driver meets the highest standards for safety, performance, and professionalism at all times.
Reinforcing our commitment to offering specialised trucking services, we regularly collaborate with global specialist driver training organisations. Our aim is to deliver industry-specific competencies required by our customers - from dangerous goods transport endorsements to hazardous substance regulations compliant handler certifications, roll over prevention training, and slow maneuvering.
We’re proud of what we’ve built: a fleet of the best trained drivers in New Zealand and the world. Our drivers consistently perform in the top 3-5% of EROAD users globally, making Alexander Group a trusted name in logistics and hazardous goods transport.
Ongoing investment in best practice technology
Optimised for health and safety, all of Alexander Group’s fleet are telematics and camera-enabled. This promotes impeccable driver behaviour and high productivity outcomes, an essential aspect of logistics management. It also provides our head office with extensive data collection and analytics capabilities.
There’s more to that investment than software. Our modern vehicle fleet, specialised for tasks like dangerous goods transport, has been selected from suppliers who align with our vision of best practice in transportation. Our network of service providers are critical to keeping our fleet on the road, and they reach all corners of the country, making us one of the most efficient freight companies New Zealand has to offer.
For 52 years, Alexander Group has been developing, testing, and deploying the best technology to serve its customers, including provisions for the transport of hazardous substances. That investment adds up to a safety, efficiency, and productivity track record that is second to none. This is what makes Alexander Group a top logistics company capable of handling hazardous goods transport and other complex tasks.
