Don-Bur Palletmaster curt ainsiders have a long pedigree but the Evolution's three, equallength, lifting decks within a 3.05m inner height impressed the judges.
Rated at 4.0 tonnes, each floor adjusts at 300mm intervals by fork-lift and secures with special pneumatic locking latches, To reposition them, a simple reset mechanism avoids having to move a floor to the roof or to ground level first On the road, its stylish front bulkhead, wrap-around side skirts and flush rear doors make the Evolution a real eye-catcher.
Krone's Dry Liner is made from vertical, galvanised steel planks and comes with powder-coated surfaces. The trailer entered had a key-holed steel interior for carrying hanging garments but there are other lining options, including plywood with load securing tracking and protective panels to guard against fork-lift damage. Special tracking takes the extra decking needed to carry palletised goods. A solidly-built box van, it offers an excellent paintwork warranty Knapen's versatile Cargo-Walk can be based on a steel or aluminium chassis, has an aluminium plank body with a horizontal moving floor to discharge most products but with fully opening side doors it can be used to shift pallets or packages too.
This heavy-duty model is built for Scottish haulier Yuill &Dodds for use on waste and recycling operations. It looks to be of a solid construction, with multi-functional uses.
Our judges considered Micra Truck Bodies' Ratchet Double Deck trailer a pretty sound design, albeit with limited use by smaller operators. Built on a Montracon chassis for Brocklehurst Transport, the superstructure holds three, fully-adjustable 3.0-tome decks, each positioned by fork-lift truck and secured by simple ratchet looks. With the decks grounded, it becomes a standard curtainsider. The straight or step-framed design can take extra decks.
Samro's UK agent, Sinclair Trailer Sales, entered the Eintelligent curtainsider, with an all-bolted chassis and Renault running gear.
The SRV2 curtainsider trailer is of standard continental dimensions: 13.55m long, 4.08m high and a 2.60m interior height. On standard 385/65R 22.5n tyres it weighs 61tonnes.
Last but not least was Wilson TS's Ultimate—a durable looking multideck curtainsider built by the Keighley manufacturer to Weaver Pallet Express specification. Up front are two, ramp-spring-assisted 'butterfly' decks on the step-frame's centre spine, while at the rear are two, fullwidth, ratcheted deck sections, both being height adjustable. Sensibly, between the two sections, an inner strut is added to counter any excessive 0forces.
