Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• A new range of refrigerated semi-trailer vans has just been introduced, as a joint venture, by Hoy Trailers and Robert B. Massey and Co Ltd.

The first four vehicles have been delivered to Ross Foods Ltd and are fitted with the optional Hands Neway air suspension in place of the standard Rubery Owen M series set-up.

All-welded chassis-less construction is used with rave sections of lightweight rolled steel and pressed steel cross members.

The body employs a lightweight prefabricated roof the underside of which is fitted with bonded insulation. The interior exposed face is then completely encased in glass reinforced Polyester laid up direct to the Polyurethane insulation.

On the Ross trailers a Fetter Thermo King PCL unit is used for refrigeration but solid CO2 and liquid nitrogen systems are also available.

A drawbar application is also available and the first two such trailers are to be built for Eden Vale (North) Ltd.
