EcoGeneration

Revoir la durabilité - une carrosserie aérodynamique pour des économies de carburant jusqu’à 5%, et une réduction des émissions de CO2.

CO₂ Calculator

The lowered rear reduces air turbulence behind the trailer and reduces air resistance. This saves fuel and reduces CO2 emissions.
How much you can save? Find out!

Calculation basis:
1 liter Diesel burns to 2.63 kg CO2.
The calculation is based on a saving of 5% fuel in Eco-Mode.
In Germany, the CO2 contribution per tonne is since 01.01.2025 55.00 €

Everything in view
Telematics can also monitor the height adjustment of the trailer, i.e. sensors detect whether the roof is raised or in an aerodynamic position.

Fuel saving
The aerodynamic trailers of the EcoGeneration significantly reduce air resistance and thus fuel consumption.
In practical use, fuel savings of more than 10 % have been achieved with the EcoGeneration concept.

Design variants
EcoFIX - fixed lowered rear roof
EcoFLEX - flexible adjustable rear roof
EcoVARIOS - flexible adjustable rear and front roof for volume transport

Curtain selection
Depending on the transport task, the EcoFIX can be fitted with the standard curtain or the lath-free POWER CURTAIN body.

Simple, familiar and proven handling
Adjustable rear roof within minutes. The height adjustment on the EcoFLEX and EcoVARIOS is based on our well-known lifting roof technology combined with our VARIOS height adjustment system. Adjustments can be made without any additional tools.

Flexible adaptation to the loading volume
Still flexible: If the full interior volume is required, the rear roof height can be easily adjusted.

Manipulation

Réglage de la hauteur

Réglage de la hauteur facile et rapide pour EcoFLEX et EcoVARIOS

Moins d’opérations de travail, procédure connue, pas d’outils supplémentaires nécessaires.

1. Ouvrir les portes et rabattre les étriers arrière vers le haut
2. Desserrer les boucles et la bâche
3. Régler le toit réhaussable avec une pompe hydropneumatique
4. Régler la hauteur intérieure nécessaire sur les poteaux
5. Réhausser le toit
6. Adapter facilement la hauteur de la bâche et la fermer
7. Fermer les étriers arrière et les portes

Arrimage du chargement

Aérodynamisme

Rails en acier ou en aluminium

Les rails en acier continus, résistants à l'usure ou en aluminium en un morceau, au poids optimisé permettent le déplacement manuel des bobines de papier et des palettes avec des rouleaux Joloda. Les rails perforés sont faciles à nettoyer, et simplifient l'arrimage du chargement.

FAQ

How quickly do the fuel savings become noticeable?

The effects are directly measurable. The EcoGeneration vehicles save up to 10% fuel.
What certificates do the Eco range meet?

As with the standard vehicle, the Eco vehicles also comply with all current certificates. The body technology of the Eco bodies is similar to that of the standard trailers.
Are any additional tools needed to make the height adjustments?

No, adjustments can be easily made and integrated into the daily transport routine within just a few minutes.
How does loading and unloading work with the Eco vehicles?

Loading and unloading of the Eco vehicles is exactly the same as for the standard vehicles. Both rear and side loading are still possible.

Only with the EcoFLEX and EcoVARIOS is it necessary to fold up the rear bar when loading from the rear in order to prevent damage to the vehicle. The load is secured using the standard Schmitz Cargobull systems.
Are there any special features of the chassis?

The well-known MODULOS chassis is used. For a particularly low empty weight, the Eco body can be combined with an X-LIGHT chassis.
Can the bodies be combined with Schmitz Cargobull telematics?

Yes, of course. All curtainsider semitrailers will be equipped with the TrailerConnect® telematics CTU as standard from the beginning of 2021.
What are the rules for repair and maintenance of the Eco vehicles?

Like standard vehicles, the Eco range assets are equipped with Schmitz Cargobull's MODULOS chassis. This means the vehicles are robust, have high corrosion protection, are flexible to transport tasks and come with a 10-year warranty against rust-through.

Vehicle functionality is based on technical aspects of previous assets and standard maintenance is required. The functionality of the height adjustment is based on our VARIOS technology, therefore no restrictions or costly repairs are to be expected.
