TraxxTwo / Schlank®

New for 2021 to meet the revised Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt Allgemeine Betriebserlaubnis / Federal Motor Vehicle Office (KBA) Type Approval (ABE) for Traxx No. 31488. Schlank is German for ‘slim’ and at 6.8mm overall width the TraxxTwo / Schlank™ system is the slimmest and lightest system available on the market, and the only to be credentialed by the KBA under 12mm! This exceptional achievement has been made possible by the Patented TraxxKeder™ and 17 years of insight leading this sector. No part of the TraxxTwo™ system is screwed or riveted to the truck side, making it ideal for refrigerated vehicles that have already been manufactured to maximum width, and all components can be European ECE104 Compliant.

TraxxKeder®

In 2005, after 2 years of R&D using a commodity stock keder, we began to discover basic flaws for a truck side application. Most stock keder is used for 2-week billboard installs where high tension, temperature change, vibration and negative vortex wind loading are not influencing factors. On a truck side, they are! The tension profile of our prototype Traxx™ system put enormous stress on the banner substrate and keder, and after 6 months of operating in a harsh truck environment, we found the beginning of deformation and weld failures. For the launch of TraxxOne™ in 2006, we introduced TraxxKeder™ with a unique shape and a unique compound. Why? Because with careful R&D we discovered that with tension, an irregular shape deforms in a controlled way, gripping the unique contours of the keder retaining profile, adding security and structural stability to our systems.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Colour: Light Grey
Format: 100 metre rolls
Packaging: Available as 2x 100m rolls in 1 box, or pallet of 12 boxes

TraxxBanner®

A proprietary 450g/m2 1350D x 1350D semi-coated product with a virgin PVC print face for perfect HD prints, a TraxxRipStop™ warp and weft made using recycled plastic bottles, and a backside manufactured entirely from mixed recycled materials. It is a truly greener solution specifically developed for Traxx™ to eliminate waste, be printed to HD standards and be easily welded to our Patented TraxxKeder™ using high-speed automated processes. When it was MIRA tested on their destruction track and in their climatic chambers, it set new standards for banner safety and performance on truck sides. Be assured that every part of the production process is compliant with the ISO 14001 Environmental Standard. Landfill is just not an option for us.
