LPG supplier invests in two Krone Trailers

Independent LPG supplier Rectory Gas Supplies has invested in two new Krone trailers to support the next phase of its expansion.

Based near Stamford Bridge in North Yorkshire, the company provides LPG gas to homes, businesses and the trade, throughout Yorkshire, North Lincolnshire and Humberside. The company has recently expanded into Norfolk and needed two trailers to support this new operation.

David Barton, operations manager and co-owner of the business, said: “We needed two trailers for transporting gas bottles and cylinders from our headquarters to the Norwich depot, and to bring back the empties. The Krone trailers are exactly what we were looking for as they are robust and easy to use – and built to a high standard.”

The trailers are flatbed with drop sides. They include fully welded, double-T longitudinal beams and cross members, with a 40mm thick hardwood floor. They feature the Krone awardwinning Multi Lock side rave with load securing positions every 100mm.

The patented Multi Lock side rave forms part of the Krone Multi Safe load securing system, which is designed to help minimise the risk of loads becoming detached and causing injury, damage or loss.

Multi Lock is supplied with up to 126 strapping points on each side of the vehicle, creating more than 3,000 ways of securing the load. The system can be combined with a range of options, such as screwable pallet stops, lashing rings or a chain adaptor.
