7/2/2009 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: C.K. “Bud” Hughes Travis Body & Trailer, Inc. (713) 466-5888 Houston, Texas – Travis® Body & Trailer, Inc. Travis® Announces New Trailer Model, Vertex™ at the Waste Expo held in Las Vegas in June, Travis® unveiled its newest model, The Vertex™. The name is formed from combining VERT for vertical, and EX for extruded aluminum walls. It is the latest evolution of the smooth-sided, extruded aluminum, dual-walled trailer. The aerodynamic extruded walls add strength by using harder, longer-wearing 6061-T6 aluminum, and create more carrying capacity by having a thinner wall profile. Value and profit-adding features such as longer life cycles and greater capacity are attributes that are paramount to buyers in today’s economy. Travis® already has a patented extruded trailer model called The Wave®, which has been in production since 2002 and has had great success. The Vertex™ differs from the Wave® by featuring vertical wall panels, as opposed to full length horizontal extrusions on the Wave®. Each trailer has its own distinctive look and cosmetic appeal. The Vertex™ is available in: end dumps, (including frameless, quarter-frame, and frame-type), transfer trailers, including live floors and tipper trailers, and dump bodies.
