Schmitz trailers have star quality for entertainment logistics firm

Trailers
Entertainment logistics business Stardes has taken delivery of four specially designed dry freight box van trailers, from Schmitz Cargobull, to transport equipment across Europe for concerts and events.
The FP25 sits lower on a Mega full chassis design, offering more capacity while still remaining under the 4m height limit for international European transport. "Our trailer needs are quite different from that of a typical haulier and require a lot of customisation, such as extra internal lighting, load security equipment, and bespoke loading ramp carriers," explains Tim Stansbury, transport manager for the Sheffield-based firm. He adds: "Even with our extra demands, Schmitz Cargobull offered us a very short lead time, which is a critical factor for us." Stardes expects the trailers to be in service for 15 years.
