DME comment is necessary on 3rt of your article Is the Worst ahind Our Trailer Makers? (CM, Ane 13).

According to Jim Keirle, sales lanager, York Trailer Company, )u cannot regard grp as a :ructural material as the iickness is not uniform, and so innot be relied upon to be rang.

I can only assume that, by relying to grp, Mr Keirle means le grp/plywood which is curmtly used by his company in le construction of the Envoy an. It may be that York encount-s problems of uncontrolled anel thickness, but the close )ntrol of grp/plywood panel lickness is possible, though the ilerances achieved depends on le nature of the manufacturing rocess and adequate quality )ntrol standards.

However, the methods used TPI in the manufacture of lasonit panels result in a constent product, and quality )ntrol procedures ensure that gidly laid down specifications -e maintained. Since 1969, in let, TPI has supplied panels for i0 containers where specificapns are especially stringent.
