HARSH SHEETS – NOW A FIRST CHOICE IN AGRICULTURE TOO

With the widest range of sheeting products in the UK, HARSH sheets are now finding equal favour in both agricultural and road haulage applications, the latest example being a bespoke example just retro – fitted to a Ktwo trailer for farmers J.Charlton & Sons of Ainderby Steeple, Northallerton, North Yorkshire.

Providing 100% weather protection and complete load security, this side to side ‘Roll n’ Go’ sheet is made from high quality 900gsm PVC offering exceptional durability and a long service life. With the accent on simplicity, the sheet is operated manually from the ground either by a rear winding handle or from the side by pulling the sheet closed using the centre security strap. To complete this particular specification, HARSH also designed and manufactured a bespoke lightweight, full length top frame complete with curved support domes at each end of the body.

“We wanted a sheeting solution that would be practical, reliable, easy to operate and provide complete sealing for the payload” says Harry Charlton. “For a one-off requirement such as this, there’s a big advantage if the whole system can all be designed, built and installed as a single item at a single site.

The obvious choice for this was HARSH, not least for their ever-growing reputation in the sheeting business, but also because they are more than happy to provide individual, bespoke solutions for customers like ourselves.”

The British – built Ktwo trailer is a twin axle design with a steel body  and hydraulic tailgate offering a payload of up to 13 tonnes. Typically towed by a tractor, it will mainly be used off – road to transport just – harvested wheat and barley from field to warehouse, as well as a whole raft of other farming duties.

Mark Britton, who heads up the sheeting and tarpaulin business for HARSH at their HQ outside York comments “we are delighted to have been able to provide Harry with exactly the sheeting system his company needed for their new trailer. Whether for rigid tippers, full size semi-trailers, farm trailers or other bespoke products, HARSH now has the widest range of sheeting solutions available in the UK.

Design, manufacture and fitting can all be done here at our dedicated workshop at Full Sutton – it’s a complete service, from start to finish.”
