In this new episode of Behind the wheel with JOST, we have the honour of presenting an essential innovation for air freight: the JOST rollerbed trailer. Michael Liebens, workshop controller at KCS, explains the special features of trailers specially designed for air freight transport. Equipped with rollerbed systems, these trailers revolutionise loading and unloading thanks to a precise pneumatic mechanism, enabling goods to be transferred quickly and fluently between trailer and aircraft. Michael explains the key benefits: • Crucial time savings in an industry where every minute counts; • Safety for operators and goods; • The universality of the system, which has been adopted by all aircraft and trailers. He also details the safety measures, the logistical risks associated with malfunctions, and the innovations that guarantee punctuality. A captivating episode to discover how JOST optimises air freight logistics. #BehindTheWheel #RollerbedTrailer #AirFreight #Logistics #Innovation #Safety #Efficiency #FreightTransport #JOSTLifeInMotion🦘🦘🦘

In the world of trucking, safety isn't just a priority, it's a way of life. That's why Level IV brake system inspections are so crucial for those big rigs on the road. 🔧 But what exactly happens during a Level IV inspection? Well, it's a meticulous process that examines all the components – from brake linings and drums to hoses and valves. It ensures everything is functioning as it should. This year, during Brake Safety Week, the CVSA (Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance) is shining a spotlight on Level IV inspections. They're on a mission to keep our roads safe and sound. And at Zenith Logistics, we're right there with them. Our commitment to safety means our trucks always undergo these rigorous inspections, leaving no stone unturned.✌ #BrakeSafetyWeek #LevelIVInspection #TruckSafety #ZenithLogistics #RoadSafety #TruckingLife #SafetyFirst #BrakeInspection #CVSABrakeSafetyWeek #TruckingCommunity #StaySafe #OnTheRoad #TruckMaintenance #SafeRoads
