Krone Profi Liner shows its mettle for steel transporter31 October 2017

Midlands-based steel transporter JMP Transport Services has taken delivery of a new Krone Profi Liner trailer, citing high flexibility and secure loading as reasons for the decision.

“This Krone Profi Liner is fitted with a sliding roof, which makes it ideal for fast and secure loading – especially when handling pre-painted flat sheet steel and steel coils,” says owner-driver John Phillips.

The curtainsiders are also fitted with Krone’s standard Multi Lock loading system, which has 130 lashing points along each side rave, and JMP also specified the Multi Block loading system.

Phillips explains: “We specialise in high-end, pre-prepared steel items, such as garage doors and white goods. Therefore, I added the Multi Block option because it means we can load from front to back and strap lengthways over the bearers. This keeps the cargo away from the bulkhead and prevents any movement or damage during transit.”

The trailer floor is constructed from fully waterproofed 30mm, phenolic coated plywood and is tested to DIN standard EN 283 for forklift axle loads of up to 7,000kg.

“The Krone Profi Liner represents exceptional value for money, provides flexible and secure loading and is more than up to the job,” adds Phillips.
