Montracon scores hat-trick with 3 large orders

Celebration is in the air at Leading Trailer Manufacturer Montracon Ltd, with not one major order but three, equating to over 300 trailers. The orders, which were secured in June, are to supply fridge trailers to Sainsbury’s, Morrisons and Fowler Welch.

The orders consisted of 68 trailers to Sainsbury’s; all fitted with Carrier Vector 1850 System, 1b fridge motors including discharge evaporator. This feature will help ensure temperature control when these trailers operate throughout the UK.

The second order that was secured went to the supermarket chain Morrisons. This was for 200 fridge trailers with some incorporating Montracon’s own Aerodynamic fuel saver kit. The trailers will be equipped with Hubbard under body (chassis mounted) fridge motors and will be operating throughout the UK delivering food and drink to some 420 Morrisons stores.

To complete the hat-trick was Montracon’s long standing customer, Fowler Welch. The 68 Multi-temp Fridge Trailers are ATP certified, therefore can be operated throughout the UK and Europe. To help ensure maximum durability they are fitted with a soft docking system to prevent damage to the rear end of the trailer when reversing to a loading bay.

The trailers in all three orders will be manufactured at Montracon’s Market Weighton factory.
