PEAK TRAILERS has bought the full manufacturing rights for the range of couplings previously produced by Harrison Bros (Pidentia Works), one of the C.I. Caravans Group which last year went into liquidation. Peak has also acquired some of the Harrison stock and is able to offer all undergear spares for C.I. caravan and trailer users.
EEC-approved The modern range of EEC-approved Harrison couplings is fully compatible with reversing brakes, and together with undergear of up to 2,500kg capacity it complements Peak's own range of couplings and undergear with capacities from 250kg to 4,000kg (5cwt to 4 tons).
Expansion Peak Trailers' total range includes patented couplings, solid axle and independent rubber suspension units, braked and unbraked axles, jockey wheels and corner steadies, as well as the recent addition of Harrison couplings and undergear. Further expansion to the Peak Trailers range of products has occurred recently with the launch of automatic reversing in various sizes for single and double-axle trailer chassis, complying with EEC standards.
Growth In addition to expansion of its product range, Peak Trailers has shown other signs of growth in the past year.
In August 1982 the firm moved its small premises in Wellesbourne near Warwick to a new larger factory on the Waterloo Industrial Estate at Bidford on Avon, in Warwickshire.
