Benalu – other models: French aluminium silo semi-trailers of the Bulkliner, Powderliner and Multiliner families, 24,000 to 43,000 kg gross weight
Benalu is a French manufacturer of aluminium semi-trailers for bulk and silo transport; this collective page gathers models outside the named series. The Bulkliner, Powderliner, Optiliner and Multiliner families differ in payload and tank interior fittings — Powderliner for powdery bulk goods such as cement, Multiliner for grain and other bulk materials — with the figure after the name giving the volume in cubic metres.

The register lists 60 versions with kerb weights from 2,260 to 9,550 kg and gross weights from 24,000 to 43,000 kg. 48 models carry recorded lengths from 8,100 to 14,060 mm, and widths sit between 2,500 and 2,550 mm.
Aluminium silo semi-trailers of this type are common in European agricultural and building-materials haulage, since the light metal saves several tonnes of payload per run compared with steel versions. Benalu ranks among the established makers in this segment, supplying hauliers in grain, feed and cement transport. As semi-trailers with a kingpin and fifth-wheel coupling, these vehicles fall into class O4 for heavy trailers above 10 tonnes, which need a category CE licence to tow.
When buying used, check the aluminium tank's weld seams for cracks and the discharge flaps and compressor connections for leaks. The axles, brake system and kingpin condition should be inspected, along with any dents or corrosion where the tank meets steel components. Spare parts for axles and valves are supplied by dealers specialising in silo and tanker semi-trailers.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
