UK Operator adds theft-resistant curtainsider
In response to heightened activity in online shopping, largely brought on by Covid-19, Preston (UK)-based Forge Logistics has purchased a Krone Profi Liner trailer with reinforced curtains, sliding roof and flush-fit rear doors, all of which say the company add flexibility, speed and secure loading to their fast-expanding contract work for Amazon.
Weighing in at just 6,465kgs the lightweight curtainsider is ideal for fully loaded multi-drop deliveries, not least because of Krone's unique multi-lock loading system which features 2 t strapping points every 10 cm along each side rave, to allow multiple lashing options for mixed loads. For additional protection during ramp loading, the Profi Liners are fitted with a bespoke-designed steel rear bumper with shock-absorbing rubber buffers. (ben)
