Refrigerated transport specialist, McCulla Ireland, has reviewed its latest electric Schmitz Cargobull trailer.
The fridge has no combustion engine, according to the fleet, and is powered by an electric battery in conjunction with a generator in the middle axle which has three settings from eco setting through to max retardation.
“We have been running trials on this trailer on all work types and on runs right across Ireland and Great Britain,” McCulla Ireland said in a statement.
“To date, we are very impressed with this zero emission fridge supplied to us by our long term fridge trailer supplier.
“At McCulla we are continually innovating on way to make our already green fleet, even greener.”
McCulla Ireland, established in 1969, provides ambient, chilled and frozen logistics and storage solutions.
It is now a second generation family-owned business with three facilities based in Lisburn, Dublin and Mallusk.
McCulla Ireland has been using Schmitz Cargobull trailing equipment since 2008.
