Kinaxia Logistics has upgraded its fleet with more than 200 bespoke new curtainsiders from Tiger Trailers.<\/span><\/p>\n The top 15 UK logistics group has invested more than \u00a36m this year on the 205 new trailers and is looking to order more in 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n They are being deployed across the group as part of Kinaxia\u2019s move to standardise its curtainside trailer fleet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The new, high-specification postless trailers are designed for a 44-tonne operation and stand 4.5 metres tall.<\/span><\/p>\n Each is equipped with several safety features, including the Axscend TrailerMaster tracking system, which reports on the status and location of a trailer and alerts the user to any brake or tyre issues. It is designed to reduce the downtime of a vehicle, boost security and efficiency and ensure compliance.<\/span><\/p>\n Tiger Trailers has also installed the Axscend electronic brake performance monitoring system in each new Kinaxia curtainsider. The system provides dynamic, live remote monitoring of a trailer\u2019s braking performance.<\/span><\/p>\n Another feature is the Maple Fleet Services SafeConnect system, which is a safety device that ensures a trailer\u2019s brakes are applied and not inadvertently released during the coupling process, protecting the driver until they safely return to the cab and are in full control of the vehicle.<\/span><\/p>\n James Hathaway, Kinaxia\u2019s group fleet manager, said: \u201cWe are upgrading and standardising our equipment across the group to meet the needs of our customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThese new high-spec Tiger trailers ensure maximum safety, compliance and efficiency and have been very well-received by our team and our clients.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Kinaxia is a top 15 UK logistics group which has its headquarters in Macclesfield, Cheshire.
