Logistik Schmitt has been electrifying its fleet for years – but the heavy batteries of electric tractor units place additional load on the drive axle and reduce payload capacity. With the lightweight BERGERecotrail Performance LTOe curtainsider semi-trailer and trailer axles positioned 60 centimetres further forward, Schmitz Cargobull has solved the problem: 40 of these trailers are already in operation at Logistik Schmitt.
In steel transport, every kilo counts. Anyone moving coils is moving heavy loads and quickly reaches the limits of the permissible gross vehicle weight. This is exactly where the BERGERecotrail PerformanceCoil 24LTCe comes in – a lightweight trailer that delivers on its promises.
In our production facilities in Radfeld, two worlds come together that many people see as contradictory. On one side, there is precision robotics and state-of-the-art manufacturing technology. On the other, decades of Tyrolean craftsmanship. For us, this is not a contradiction—it is the formula for trailers that set benchmarks in their class.
In long-distance transport, every hour and every kilo counts. So it’s no surprise that more and more transport companies are choosing BERGERecotrail’s lightweight trailers.I
