The trailers themselves have been designed to carry tyres featuring reinforced internal body walls to prevent bowing under heavy loads.

This blue-chip UK truck show brought hundreds of exhibitors, fleet operators, policymakers, members of the public and of course, the T&BB team.

The lifting deck trailer has been designed to maximise cargo space in order to transport a range of different-sized goods (clothing and ambient freight). The upper deck has a usable load width of 2.44 metres, with space for “three additional dollies or two extra cages”.

Space for 52 UK pallets per trailer, the new high-volume box van design focuses on maximising space, to make each trip more efficient and thereby reducing CO2 emissions by reducing the number of daily trips.

The 15.65-metre-long trailers have a 60-pallet capacity, increasing a standard double-deck trailer capacity by 8 pallets, thereby improving operational efficiency.

The company has invested GBP 750,000 in a new Curtain ‘Livery’ Printer which has greatly improved efficiency and offers vastly increased throughput.

The new 6,053 square-foot service centre for light commercial vehicles will service the repair, recovery, diagnostics and MOTs of their LCVs.
