'Don't stop': Schmitz Cargobull extends Knorr-Bremse brake supply contract22 April 2020

German semitrailer builder Schmitz Cargobull has extended its supply contract with brake manufacturer Knorr-Bremse, said to be worth in the 'high double-digit millions of Euros'.

Over the next few years, Knorr-Bremse says it will supply Schmitz Cargobull with its current ST7 trailer air disk brake technology. The agreement also includes the changeover to the new trailer-specific disc brake design NEXTT following the start of production within this timeframe, according to the supplier.

That will make it among the first customers to employ NEXTT, a design said to be not only more compact and lighter but also more flexible in terms of its adaptability to different regional requirements.
