Continental haulage business Hannon Transport has taken delivery of 40 Schmitz Cargobull refrigerated semi-trailers, each equipped with the manufacturer’s new TrailerConnect temperature and mapping telematics.

The company also specified Schmitz Cargobull’s MF6 Multifunction Floor, claimed to offer 35% longer service life, with an easy-clean profile for hygiene deliveries, while also meeting PIEK* low-noise loading and unloading requirements.

Hannon Transport managing director Aodh Hannon went for 20 mono-temp and 20 dual-temp trailers, bringing the company’s trailer fleet to 150 – all Schmitz Cargobull.

“I always buy from Schmitz Cargobull because the company delivers exactly what I want, every time,” states Hannon.

“And with TrailerConnect, we now have access to the best trailer telematics system on the market,” he continues.

“We’ll be able to track everything that happens with our freight with printed proof of the integrity of our operations – all on trailers that are highly cost-effective to purchase and operate.”

The new trailers will operate on routes between Ireland and the Netherlands, transporting flowers and chilled food – with Hannon’s transport office using TrailerConnect for full monitoring.

Temperature data is recorded in real time and SMS and email alerts are available for fleet managers and drivers in the event of problems.

Maintenance and scheduling data is also available, enabling tracking and recording of every aspect of the trailer’s life.
