Snag Free Interior Lining
The loading and unloading of trailers can be a brutal process that drives up maintenance costs. Interior sidewall damage caused by the impact of pallets is a very common sight in trailer shops. But, there are trailer designs that can help to minimize to reduce this type of damage.
This short video does a good job of demonstrating the durability of the snag-free interior lining on the Utility 4000D-X Composite trailer.
