Application of a moving floor trailer

The Knapen Trailers moving floor is exceptionally suited for the transport of bulk goods.
With a moving floor trailer, you can transport the following products:
• Agricultural products
• Wood products
• Waste (household)
• Metal waste
• Pallets, big bags
• Paper waste/rolls bales
A trailer fitted with a roll-up sheet can, among others, transport the following products:
• Glass
• Gravel
• Ores
• Sharp sand
• Fruit & Vegetables
• Other abrasive materials
Materials that may NOT automatically be transported:
• Abrasive materials with low grain size
• (Greasy) substances that can harden during transport.
• Materials that are mutually subject to galvanic corrosion (e.g between copper and aluminium)
amplified by the presence of moisture.
When transporting these product categories, there is a risk of the floor planks getting stuck. In this case,
the moving floor must be completely dismounted. This is not covered by the warranty.
The floor is not suited for heavy point loads. A floor load can damage the floor planks and guides.
Point loads also have an effect on wear and tear or damage to the side wall.
For loading with a forklift or pallet truck, we refer to chapter 5.4
For specific questions or in case of doubt regarding the product to be transported, we advise you to contact your
Knapen Trailers representative.
