TRANSTEX in Transport Topics: Options Expand for Trailer Aerodynamics.

Transport Topics interviewed TRANSTEX and our customers for their article “Options Expand for Trailer Aerodynamics!”

Here’s what Ron Hall, C.R. England’s Vice President of Equipment, had to say:

“C.R. England began installing the skirts, manufactured by TRANSTEX, four or five years ago after being dissatisfied with warranty support for skirts supplied by a different manufacturer.

Solid durability and flexibility are essential in trailer skirts because they tend to take a lot of impact.

TRANSTEX & Premier Trailer Leasing

A big thank you to Joe Bromley and the rest of the Premier Trailer Leasing team (Gregory Landis Jim AuBuchon Craig Barth John Rouse Cory Dorzek) for helping us make #TMCAnnual20 our best TMC to date. TRANSTEX is grateful for PTL’s contribution of a brand new Great Dane trailer to our booth as well as the support offered during the planning stages prior to the event.
