Betz optz for Schmitz
GERMAN HAULER WILLI BETZ has taken delivery of 50 Schmitz Cargobull freepost curtainsider trailers.
The trailers will operate out of the firm's Derbyshire facility, and be used to transport automotive components.
They were built at Schmitz Cargobull's factory at Harelaw, County Durham, using
a patented bolted and galvanised manufacturing technique that is designed to make loading and unloading safer,
Willi Betz has facilities across Europe and the Middle East, and operates a central purchasing policy.
Simon Lings, UK automotive business manager at Willi Betz, says the firm's policy is to "always specify" Schmitz Cargobull products when additions to the trailer fleet are needed.
He says: "We are multinational, and it's our German parent's policy to reduce the number of suppliers it deals with.
"Our group has operated Schmitz Cargobull trailers for several years now."
