• York has come up with a "strapless" system of restraining supermarket roll cages in a curtainside trailer. The devices save the driver ,15 minutes each time he unloads, according to the trailer maker.
The method uses frames or "pramhandles" attached to the roof, each of which holds two rows of three cages in place. These frames are secured to the floor with short straps.
Tesco has completed trials with the system and has ordered 57 curtainsiders fitted with it. York says several "blue-chip" firms are in terested. It has not settled yet on a name for the system, though Cargo Bar has been suggested as a possibility.
