Ambient, chilled and FMCG supply-chain company Fowler Welch has taken delivery of 68 Montracon refrigerated trailers for its 620-strong reefer fleet.
The move follows good in-service experience with Montracon after Fowler Welch established the trailer manufacturer in 2005.
The maximum length 13.65m refrigerated trailers feature sliding bulk-heads, twin evaporators and several additional features claimed to improve safety and reduce environmental impact.
"We take great care in selecting our trailer fleet," says Fowler Welch's head of fleet Paul Allera. "There are many operational parameters to consider, and particularly with regard to refrigerated units.
"That's where Montracon emerged as our preferred reefer supplier," he continues. "They were prepared to sit down with us, look at our requirements and produce a tailored solution; an exacting specification for our needs."
