NAT Enterprises’ has added four new Euroliners and a dropside flatbed trailer from Schmitz Cargobull to its fleet.
Seen here coupled to Volvo and Renault tractor units, they will help the company improve its efficiency across its European operations.
NAT Enterprises is contracted by GreenChem to deliver AdBlue storage tanks to customers in Italy, Spain, Hungary, The Netherlands and Belgium. Schmitz Cargobull’s Euroliners ensure NAT Enterprises’ operations are compliant with European trailer regulations. The company also benefits from Schmitz Cargobull’s network of authorised service partners across Europe for breakdown and parts supply.
Neil Harding, operations manager at NAT Enterprises, said: “We were impressed with two used Schmitz trailers we bought a couple of years ago, and the Euroliner’s specifications suit our business perfectly. For our work in Europe, they are better than I could buy off any UK-based manufacturer.”
Two of the Euroliners will be used to transport fresh sawn timber from France to suppliers in the Midlands. The trailers' lift axles are fitted with a ROTOS running gear and are expected to travel 120,000km annually. Alongside the Euroliners, Schmitz Cargobull delivered a S.PR BAU flatbed semi-trailer with a reinforced chassis, high headboard and removable dropsides which will be used for AdBlue deliveries.
Harding said: “The furthest place we go is southern Italy. That’s a long run but the Euroliner does the job superbly. The look and build quality of the trailers is very good. They are robust but light and have flexible carrying capacity.
“The turnaround time from order to build and delivery was much quicker than other companies could offer. We can keep a close eye on the trailers via the TrailerConnect telematics system and have access to Schmitz Cargobull’s Europe-wide service network, which are great benefits.”
