Krone Trailers UK has delivered another Coil Liner trailer to Hoylake Commercial, bringing the operator’s total Krone fleet to six, made up of three Coil Liners and three Profi Liner curtainsiders.
Logistics and haulage specialist Hoylake Commercial, which is based in the Wirral, serves customers across multiple sectors throughout the UK.
It operates a mixed fleet of tippers, tankers, low-loaders, flatbeds, container carriers, coil carriers and curtainsiders, and requires equipment that performs reliably in diverse and demanding environments.
Hoylake said it has been specifying Krone trailers since 2014 thanks to their proven performance and long-term durability.
“We’ve never had a warranty issue. The quality is brilliant,” said Carl Williams, Hoylake fleet manager. “These trailers allow us to handle both specialist and general freight without compromise.
“Whether it’s steel coils or mixed cargo, we know we’ve got the right equipment for the job – which keeps us efficient and our customers happy.”
The Krone Coil Liner is purpose-built to transport steel coils and other heavy cargo. The vehicle provides high strength and load stability, featuring an integrated coil trough up to 8,592 mm long and a reinforced chassis with 30mm-thick hardwood floors. The replaceable coil well covers also allow it to be quickly converted for standard cargo.
For general haulage operations, Hoylake relies on the Krone Profi Liner. Engineered for fast, secure loading and unloading, it features Krone’s modular chassis design, a robust front bulkhead with integrated load securing, and the Multi Lock side rave system, offering more than 130 lashing points to secure a wide range of loads.
“The trailers are well specified,” Williams added. “In particular, we went for the Profi Liner because of the multi strapping points down each side rave, which means we can secure loads faster and safely, anywhere along the trailer bed. We recommend them to everybody!”
According to Williams, the combined capabilities of the Coil Liners and Profi Liners are central to Hoylake’s day-to-day operations:
“We work with a broad range of customers across the industry, which means we need trailers that meet a variety of operational needs. Krone delivers the flexibility and build quality we rely on,” he said.
