The register lists nine versions with kerb weights from 3,200 to 12,680 kg and gross vehicle weights from 20,000 to 48,000 kg. Lengths range from 8,550 to 15,600 mm, and widths from 2,545 to 2,600 mm.

The spread from just under 8.6 to 15.6 m in length and up to 48,000 kg gross vehicle weight shows that the PPU range covers both shorter trailers for regional use and long, semi-trailer-like versions for heavy-freight transport. Even the lightest version, with a gross vehicle weight of 20,000 kg, already falls into EU trailer class O4. Trailers and semi-trailers of this kind are used mainly by hauliers, transport companies and rental fleets in commercial freight transport, which rely on robust, low-maintenance technology.

When buying used, depending on the version, it is worth checking the axles, braking system and the overrun brake or coupling, along with the frame and load bed for corrosion and wear. Spare parts for axles, brakes and lighting are generally available from trailer specialists regardless of make. Also worth checking are tyre tread depth and age, the condition of the brake and lighting connectors, and current inspection stickers and service history.

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.
