• Northampton-based C Butt has invested £.2m in 36 environmentally friendly refrigerated trailers to service a six-year/ £20m food distribution contract with Booker Cash & Carry.
Four more Volvo FL10 tractive units have also been bought by the company.
The 13.6m trailers (13.38m internal) are built to ATP class C standards by Schmitz Thermostar using vertical Ferroplast steel panels with CFC-free foam insulation.
To give multi-temperature flexibility, they have Thermo King Multi-pac 3 accoustically screened fridge units fitted with the latest R69L refrigerant. This is said to be HCFC-free with an ozone depletion factor of only 0.0275.
The compartments are separated by two Henderson folding/sliding mattress-type bulkheads and temperatures are monitored by a computerised data-logging system from IEA of Cardiff.
An additional safety feature is the latest reflective livery from 3M.
