• Sandwich, Kent-based Romac has taken delivery of Trailor's latest 13.5m, high volume semi-trailer to carry cereal to the Continent and return with palletised wine.
The 4m high aluminium bulker, which joins a fleet of eight other 12.2m trailers, has a 13.3m inner length offering a 72.5m' body capacity.
An electro-hydraulic tipping system is used rather than diesel engine power to reduce noise and keep unladen weight down. The load is protected by a simple, rolling tilt cover that moves sideways manually.
The tri-axle trailer has stabilisers at the rear and air-suspension with a raise/lower device and lifting front axle.
