Tautliner
A tautliner, also known as a curtain-sider, is a type of trailer used in road freight logistics that features flexible, removable side curtains made of durable, weather-resistant material. These curtains can be easily slid open or closed, providing easy access from the sides and enabling efficient loading and unloading of goods. Tautliners are commonly used for transporting a wide range of cargo, including palletized goods, machinery, and building materials.
