German OEM, Kögel, has announced that its brand new Kögel Strong & Go body is now available for all versions of its platform trailers, including Cargo, Mega and Lightplus of the Novum generation.
The body complies with DIN EN 12642 Code XL body stability and Daimler guideline 9.5 without the use of lattices, according to the OEM.
“With the Strong & Go body, a beverage certificate can be obtained with considerably fewer rows of lattices, meaning that Kögel not only complies with the requirements of the sector for shorter loading times, but that it also grants drivers faster, simpler and safer handling during loading and unloading,” Kögel said in a statement.
Kögel’s Strong & Go body comprises Novum Generation innovation combined with Kögel integral roof tarpaulin and a side tarpaulin with stiffening belts, which comply with Daimler Directive 9.5 for the transport of pallet cages and strapped loads. For certified beverage transport, only one row of lattices at the height of the first beverage crate stipulated by VDI 2700 Sheet 12 is required for single-level and double-level beverage crates on standard pallets with the Strong & Go body, instead of three or four rows with the normal body.
