Double deck solutions on show at IMHX

Transdek will exhibit its vehicle to ground (V2G) double deck lift and multi-temperature DUET Urban double deck trailer, which can work in tandem to provide an integrated distribution platform.

Transdek’s 6.5T V2G loading pod is the only utilitarian surface mounted lift that enables the loading and unloading of all types of goods vehicles, including the tallest double deck trailers, to ground level in as little as one-hour. For flat-floor retail sites or distribution hubs the V2G provides a highly flexible solution.

Transdek is showcasing its DUET Urban, which enables high volume, multi-temperature deliveries to city centres and is capable of transporting up to 28 pallets or 52 roll cages offering up to 100% greater load footprint when compared to an 18-tonne rigid truck – reducing congestion, transport costs, noise and air pollution.

The latest trailer features new quiet technology developments particularly suited for night-time deliveries including a PIEK-certified fridge unit, quiet tail-lift that utilises a unique ram configuration and specialised floor covering, which deadens operating noise. In addition, Transdek’s ‘twin slide’ doors, which improve safety and load security, have been developed for optimal noise reduction, utilising ultra-quiet, low friction nylon slides and acoustic panels.

Mark Adams, managing director at Transdek UK, says: “Since the launch of the original model in 2014, Transdek’s DUET Urban double deck trailer has begun a revolution in efficient transport of goods, particularly for operators in the retail and grocery sectors that make regular deliveries to stores in increasingly congested towns and cities across the UK.

“Marry the Urban trailer to our surface mounted V2G loadhouse lift, which is designed for loading any combination of goods vehicles, and you have a very efficient operation with a high level of future-proofing to meet the evolving needs of transport operators.” Stand 11M27
