Tiger Trailers has supplied Asda Stores with 35 bespoke 4.9m-tall high cube trailers fitted with internal tail lifts, which will jon the retailer’s George clothing fleet.

The side-mounted Dhollandia platform inside each of the 35 new step frame trailers is tailored for George clothing brand duties, with a capacity of 500kg and the capability to operate up and down the length of the trailer.

Operatives can manoeuvre the internal platform longitudinally and vertically, enabling them to position the 150 load-securing bars to suit the internal roof mounted tracks and nine horizontal tracks fitted at various heights down each side of the trailer internally.

Tiger Trailers has supplied articulated vehicles to ASDA for a number of years and is currently manufacturing 90 additional moving deck trailers, taking the supermarket’s Tiger fleet to over 500 assets. The new clothing trailers primarily operate out of its Brackmills, Limedale, and Washington NEC sites.

Gavin Town, Asda Stores national fleet senior manager, said: “The Tiger team visited our site a number of times and truly listened to our needs and have delivered the goods with these High Cube trailers.

“We would like to thank them for their attention to detail and the continued support they show us as a business.”

The spec for the trailers also includes an internal step for safer access to the neck area, safety gates on the moving platform, a Nexus ground-level coupling, Axscend tyre pressure monitoring, and external heat treatment paint for the roof.

Darren Holland, Tiger Trailers sales director, commented: “We always relish the opportunity to demonstrate our ability to design, engineer and manufacture bespoke vehicles to suit our customers’ unique operations and are delighted to have worked with the ASDA team on these garment transportation trailers.”
