Since 2010, Staplehurst Transits has placed an order with Schmitz Cargobull in each of the following 15 years, relying on the quality of the trailers to ensure its time-critical fresh produce is delivered safely and on time 24/7.
Mick Philcox, engineer at Staplehurst Transits, said: “I can’t fault the product. They are extremely good and although we’ve had quotes from other manufacturers, Schmitz Cargobull has always come back with the right deal.”
The mono-temp reefers are packed with Schmitz Cargobull technology to enhance safety and productivity. This includes Nexus Sliding Couplings to keep drivers safe and remove the need to enter the space between tractor cab and trailer. Staplehurst Transits has also specified Schmitz Cargobull running gear including 430mm disc brakes to make sure the reefers perform strongly on roads or farm tracks.
The reefers are equipped with an Electronic Brake Performance Monitoring System (EBPMS), which Schmitz Cargobull offers as a factory fit option. EBPMS enables hauliers to enhance road safety, reduce vehicle downtime, meet UK legislative compliance and save money.
