Dear Customer,
As a transportation solutions leader, Great Dane is committed to providing its customers with custom solutions to meet their unique needs. With the help of a dedicated design team and hands-on engineering support, customers can choose options and design features that best suit their individual needs. In this issue of Evolving Trailer Technology, you’ll read about some of the many custom solutions Great Dane offers.
Beyond delivering superior thermal performance, our Everest reefers feature the strongest floor system in the industry. Building on this strength, we’ll look at how matching the right floor types and scuffbands will enhance your trailer’s performance. Plus, we’ve added antimicrobial protection to our roof and wall liners to give you an edge on clean.
Trailer brakes are a vital safety feature but choosing the braking system that’s best for your operation can be a tough choice. Understanding the need for proper balance between tractor and trailer systems can help make the decision easier. We’ll also discuss how air disc brakes compare to drum brakes, and the improved safety and efficiency that air disc brakes can provide.
Our Sahara truck body is loaded with numerous design options, including translucent roof sheets, lighting options, floor options and more. Read about how the Big Ten Network customized a Sahara truck body to be the official equipment truck for its “BTN Tailgate” program, which aired live from college campuses this past fall.
Great Dane products are designed with an intimate understanding of the customer’s needs using the highest quality components and technology available. Be sure to read the stories of three customers who are using Great Dane’s custom solutions to keep their fleets efficient, safe and on the road.
At Great Dane, we strive to exceed our customers’ expectations with innovative products and services that also play to our strength of custom design. I hope you’ll enjoy reading about some of these design options and the many ways Great Dane is working to help our customers succeed.
Best regards,
Brandie M. Fuller
