Schmitz Cargobull wins big in ETM Awards readers' poll

June 2026 – Schmitz Cargobull was one of the big winners of this year's readers' poll by ETM Verlag, receiving the prestigious ETM Award "Best of New Transportation" in eight categories. In this way, readers not only confirm the performance of individual products but the strength of the Schmitz Cargobull brand as a reliable partner in everyday transport. Solutions were awarded in the categories of container chassis, curtainsiders, refrigerated box trailers, lightweight trailers, swap body trailers, refrigeration units, telematics and in the category "Future of Logistics".

3,384 readers of the trade magazines FERNFAHRER and trans aktuell, as well as the online portal eurotransport.de, took part in the vote and selected the best commercial vehicle solutions of the year. The decisive factor here is that the choice is not only based on products, but also deliberately on the brand behind them. Users chose Schmitz Cargobull in eight categories, underlining the high level of confidence in the company's brand, quality and systems expertise.

"Our customers have voted Schmitz Cargobull in the top spot in eight categories – this shows us that our solutions are convincing in practice and meet the requirements of our customers. We are really very pleased about this, such a vote is anything but a matter of course," said Andreas Schmitz, CEO of Schmitz Cargobull AG, at the award ceremony on 11 June 2026 in Stuttgart. "The decision in favour of our brand stands for reliability, innovation and partnership-based cooperation. This is exactly what our teams work on every day – with the clear aim of creating added value for our customers. We would like to thank our customers for their trust."

The award-winning solutions reflect Schmitz Cargobull's broad positioning along the entire transport chain. In the container chassis segment, the vehicles impressed with their high flexibility and cost-effectiveness in intermodal use. The S.CS curtainsider semi-trailers stand for efficient transport processes in general cargo transport, combined with high body stability and practical loading and unloading concepts. In temperature-controlled transport, the S.KO refrigerated box trailers set standards with their reliable insulation performance, energy efficiency and intelligent control. Thanks to its optimised dead weight, the lightweight trailer BERGERecotrail enables a higher payload with reduced fuel consumption at the same time, thus contributing to increasing efficiency in the fleet. Schmitz Cargobull also offers cost-effective and flexible solutions for combined transport in the field of swap body trailers and systems.
