They can fit a wide range of cargo, from palletized goods to oddly shaped equipment. These items need both the convenience of side loading and the security of an enclosed space.
Advantages of Using Genron's Curtain Side Trailers
Dual loading system: Curtain side trailers have a retractable tarpaulin system. This system allows for side loading, like on a flatbed. This makes them highly adaptable to many cargo types. You may be dealing with palletized goods, long items that are hard to load or unload from a normal trailer, or raw materials like timber, steel, and iron. This dual system ensures that goods can be loaded from the side or the back to meet more diverse transport requirements.
Retractable PVC curtains: The curtains can be moved to one side quickly and easily, simplifying the loading and unloading process. This means forklift trucks can approach the load from anywhere along the trailer. This increases the speed of loading and unloading. It is especially important for fast-town deliveries or when only part of the load needs to be unloaded.
High-strength steel for durability: The curtain sider trailer is built with a strong frame for increased durability. A sturdy front section, strong horizontal roof supports, and a metal construction roof similar to that of a dry van. This ensures the trailer can survive harsh transport. It also protects the cargo from the elements.
