The register lists here 5 versions with kerb weights from 7,120 to 10,800 kg at gross weights from 31,000 to 35,000 kg, lengths from 12,040 to 14,040 mm and a width of 2,600 mm.
With a gross weight of up to 35,000 kg these box trailers fall into the upper EU class O4; as enclosed box bodies they serve weather-protected transport of general and palletised cargo in European road haulage. The Dutch market for such twin-axle box trailers is closely tied to the general European long-haul business and competes with manufacturers from Germany and Belgium.
On a used box trailer of this type, what counts is the tightness of the body and the condition of the roof and side walls, the function of the tail lift where fitted, the condition of the axles, brakes and tyres given the high axle loads, and corrosion on the frame and doors; a look at the interior lining reveals past leaks. Spare parts for the body and chassis run through the Dutch commercial-vehicle trade. It is also worth checking the door seals and hinges and the load capacity of the floor under point loads from a forklift.

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.
