Background & Challenge
Leed had recently acquired two Volvo A30G Articulated Dump Trucks (ADTs) and needed custom 23,000L water cartage solutions to meet the demanding requirements of the Snowy Hydro 2.0 project. They turned to Allquip to bring their vision to life.
They needed more than a standard build. LEED needed a solution that would integrate seamlessly with Volvo ADT chassis, meet strict safety, operator and site requirements, and be backed by full engineering support with exceptional build quality and reliable delivery timelines.
The solution had to be robust, compliant, and built for continuous operation in tough, high-output conditions. So they partnered with Allquip to deliver a fully engineered solution from concept through to commissioning.
The Solution
Allquip delivered two fully customised ADT water trucks, purpose-built for
Snowy Hydro 2.0. Working closely with LEED, we provided
Australian-made Quality
All tanks and modules were manufactured locally, aligning with Leed’s commitment to supporting the Australian industry while ensuring full control over quality and engineering standards.
Built for the Long-Haul
