Bernard Krone, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Bernard Krone Holding SE & Co. KG
“Z
ero emissions by 2030” is the big goal - we at Krone are thinking even further and taking on the “Mission Beyond Zero”: At the IAA 2022, we will present the eTrailer, a technology that not only makes the trailer more sustainable and efficient, but also reduces the fuel consumption of the tractor unit by up to 40 percent. This shows once again the importance of the trailer for transport and how much it can contribute to greater sustainability. The eTrailer is by no means everything: we are bringing eleven products to Hanover, from our market-proven Profi Liner to other innovations such as our Box Liner Automatic, where the driver can adjust the chassis to the container size fully automatically in just one minute at the touch of a button. This makes port handling a third more efficient.
Such products are only possible because we always stay in contact with you, our customers, and take your wishes and requirements seriously - and turn them into economical solutions. All the more reason for us to look forward to talking to you personally again at the IAA.
When it comes to product development, we also draw inspiration from strong partners, experts and start-ups who - like us at Fahrzeugwerk Krone - are professionals in their field. Cooperations are the future: we initiate and cultivate them. Among others, with our expert platform Denkfabrik, which reveals its recipes for success for a successful industry in this issue.
