Leading semi-trailer manufacturer Kässbohrer and ICTS Group continue to strengthen their partnership. Recently, the company decided to add 20 Kässbohrer Dry Freight Plywood Box vehicles to their fleet. The ICTS Group is a trailer rental, maintenance and field services company and provides services in the major transport routes in Europe, mainly in the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Belgium, Poland and Russia. The ICTS fleet consists of more than 2800 vehicles.
Mr. Joop Roijakkers, Vice President of ICTS Group, and Mr. Mehmet Önen, Head of Key Account Management at Kässbohrer, detailed their partnership.
«For over 5 years, we operate with Kässbohrer Curtainsider and Container Chassis vehicles and are very happy with their robustness and performance. As a result of Kässbohrer quality, we have decided to add 20 Kässbohrer Dry Freight Plywood Box Vehicles to our fleet. For our operations in narrow city roads, Kässbohrer K.SBT C vehicles provide excellent maneuverability with their mechanical steering axle. The vehicle’s steering axles will enable time saving and decrease fuel consumption as well as preventing vehicle damages in our operations. We are very glad to extend our partnership with Kässbohrer», stated Mr. Roijakkers.

«Apart from the options ICTS selected, we also offer versatile options such as double deck option to increase the capacity to 66 euro pallets, crane pockets for intermodal operations, laminated hardwood floor for tough operations, aluminum shutter door for easy and quick loading and unloading and cantilever lift to accelerate loading and unloading when there is no ramp. We are sure that our partnership with ICTS Group will continue thanks to our wide product range, vehicles that are perfect fit for their operations, extensive sales and wide after-sales support.»
