Sesenta años de historia e innovación en el sector automovilístico

Cuando KART Group empezó a fabricar tráilers en 1991, ya contábamos con 40 años de experiencia a nuestras espaldas en el sector del automóvil. Durante esos años, nuestras colaboraciones de larga duración con Bentley, Mercedes Benz, Volkswagen y otros fabricantes de automóviles líderes en el mercado nos proporcionaron los conocimientos adecuados sobre los objetivos y problemas de los fabricantes y transportistas.

Sabemos que todo el mundo quiere ahorrar tiempo durante el proceso de carga de mercancías sin poner en riesgo la seguridad, así como utilizar un tráiler que pueda atravesar terrenos con todo tipo de dificultades y seguir funcionando durante otros veinte años. Los ingenieros de KART Group han desarrollado un diseño vanguardista para crear tráilers que sean más fáciles y rápidos de cargar sin poner en peligro la seguridad y la resistencia.
