    Vicovanu Transport, a family-run road haulage provider, recently expanded its container transport capacity with the addition of 15 new Krone Box Liner sliding chassis trailers. That brings the Essex-based company’s Krone fleet up to 90, with 15 more still on order, to support its multimodal logistics solutions across the UK.

    “The Krone Box Liner continues to be our premium trailer of choice,” says Sergiu Vicovanu, managing director of Vicovanu Transport Ltd. “Its versatility, build quality, and reliability are unmatched for our kind of high-intensity container work. We operate across the UK and Europe, and these trailers give us the flexibility and confidence to meet every logistical challenge.”

    About The Krone Box Liner

    The chassis can be easily adjusted to fit all standard container sizes, including 1 x 40 feet, 1 x 45 feet, 2 x 20 feet, or a 30-foot container. Ten varieties are available with payloads ranging from 27,200 to 39,160 kilograms (59,965 to 86,333 pounds). The double T-longitudinal beams with welded cross members and the EC-compliant extractable rear bumper enhance the trailer’s durability. Steel components are shot blasted, primed with CDC coating, and finished with a powder coat to prevent corrosion and ensure the trailer has a long life. The reinforced parking brake system on all three axles improves safety.

    The trailer also has Krone Smart Tyre Monitoring, which provides real-time tracking of tyre pressure and temperature and is ECE R141-compliant. The Telematics KSC ProPlus Dry 2 system provides live error messages and diagnostic data accessible through WLAN applications to inform operators on the status of the braking system, trailer coupling, GPS location, and maintenance mileage.
