Krone is part of the Bernard Krone Holding, headquartered in Werlte in the Emsland region, which besides agricultural machinery also builds commercial trailers and semi-trailers under the Krone Commercial Vehicle Group brand. The SDR line runs from the designation SDR through SDR 27 EL4 to equipment variants such as SDR 27 ELZ4-S and SDR 2Deck FP60, the latter denoting a two-level body.

The register lists 12 versions with an unladen weight of 6,000 to 10,260 kg and a permissible gross weight of 8,806 to 43,000 kg. Lengths range from 13,970 to 14,040 mm at a constant width of 2,600 mm.
Trailers of this size supplement articulated tractor units or rigid trucks in long-haul transport to form so-called road trains, in which the towing vehicle and the trailer can be loaded independently of each other. They compete with comparable ranges from other German and European trailer builders and are used mainly by haulage companies and fleet operators in general cargo and swap-body traffic.
When buying a used trailer, it is worth checking the frame for corrosion and cracked welds, particularly around the axle suspension and the coupling. The braking system, overrun brake and tyres should be checked for wear, as should the lighting system and the cable runs along the frame. On curtainsiders or flatbeds, leaks often show up as damp patches inside; spare parts for axles, brakes and lighting are available through the general trailer parts trade.

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.
