Material gains

For situations where tipping is not possible, Skip Units and sister company Truck Specialists have developed an innovative bottom discharge solution for textile recyclers.

The solution consists of a vehicle with a specialist body working in conjunction with bottom discharge containers designed to reduce the cost of emptying, collecting and weighing the contents of textile banks. Two of the vehicles and 90 containers are already in use.

The vehicles already supplied by Truck Specialists are based on a MAN TGS 26-400 6 x 2 chassis with a steering rear axle and are fitted with a HMF1220K3 hydraulic crane behind the cab.
