“Our goal was a solution with the same durability and competitive price as our single-panel product, but which was easier to ship, store and install,” says Marc Bolduc, general manager of Transtex Composite.
According to Transtex, the new skirt was developed especially for aftermarket OEMs, dealers and distributors. The modular system can be retrofitted in 40 minutes and an OEM can install it in as little as 15 minutes, Transtex says. No special tools are required, and an installation viode and panel positioning guide helps speed up accurate installation.
“Just like our single-panel Edge trailer skirts, carriers should expect to save up to 7.3 percent in fuel costs,” Bolduc says. “At that rate, the average career will Edge skirts pay for themselves in under a year.”
