Contintental opts for TIP trailer refurbishment
When leading tyre manufacturer Continental recently learned that TIP could refurbish their own trailers to give them a new lease of life and then got in touch, the team at TIP’s national Trailer Refurbishment Centre in Stoke-on-Trent were only too pleased to assist with an estimate of works and subsequent ‘refurb’.
Trailers in Continental’s fleet are exposed to a ‘heavy-duty’ loading process, which takes its toll on their assets after a while, with damage to roof, sidewalls and floor a regular occurrence. Not a problem for the experienced team of refurb dedicated specialists which proceeded to :-
- repair roofing, adding extra protection from the rigors of the cargo
- reseal the flooring
- add extra protection to the sidewalls, enhancing the original specification
- fitted rotating roof vents & LED loading lights
- shotblasted & re-painted the chassis
- fitted new ‘Continental’ livery
- carried out full-service inspection & MOT
… and our new customer is delighted with the finished job and the increased lifespan that our refurb process provides.
TIP’s 41-bay facility dedicated to refurbishment of all types of trailer (& including operator-owned units) will carry out technical / mechanical and / or cosmetic refurbishments of all sizes to give your fleet a ‘second life’ and positively impact your sustainability credentials to boot !
