Following feedback on its new sliding floor trailer range, shown at Tip-Ex, Schmitz Cargobull is making a demonstrator available in the UK and Ireland markets.
The tri-axle S.SF 24 sliding floor trailer, which has a cargo volume of 92m3, is equipped with 21 hydraulic sliding elements, for moving bulk or packaged goods, and a roll-up tarpaulin roof.
Paul Avery, managing director of Schmitz Cargobull UK, says it will be well suited to the waste, agricultural, wood and recycling industries – indeed anywhere that unloading bulk goods in precisely controlled amounts, without tipping, is important.
He also says that the demonstrator has been built with special features for the waste industry, including an 8mm-thick floor and a roof with extra strong cross braces and screwed storage.
The body also meets DIN EN 12642 Code XL certification for load security.
