We’re proud to introduce the new Flatcova close-coupled trailer – the latest addition to the Boughton Engineering trailer range and our newest innovation for the waste and recycling sector.
Designed and manufactured in Britain, the Flatcova has been developed to complement our well-established Kwikcova sheeting system, giving operators an additional option to suit different operational requirements while maintaining the durability, reliability and engineering excellence that Boughton is known for.
Greater Choice for Operators
The Flatcova has been developed in response to customer demand for the flexibility of loading from both ends of the trailer, combined with the benefits of a lower unladen height.
Designed with operational efficiency in mind, the Flatcova:
- Enables loading from both ends of the trailer.
- Accommodates CHEM standard containers up to 50 cu yd as standard.
- Simplifies operation by reducing the number of operating levers.
- Reduces the risk of damage to the sheeting arms when travelling unladen.
- Features a lower-profile design with the potential to reduce aerodynamic drag.
The Flatcova joins our established range of hook loaders, skip loaders and close-coupled trailers, giving customers even greater flexibility when selecting the right solution for their operation.
Practical Engineering for Real-World Operations
Stuart Wheatley, National Sales Manager at Boughton Engineering, said:
“The Flatcova reflects our ongoing commitment to innovation and our focus on designing equipment that meets the real-world needs of operators. It complements our established Kwikcova close-coupled trailer, giving customers greater choice by offering an alternative solution for different operational requirements. Every aspect of the design has been driven by practical operator benefits, from loading flexibility and simpler operation through to protecting the equipment and improving day-to-day efficiency. We believe it gives operators another practical option when choosing the right close-coupled trailer for their operation.”
