S.BO OPENSIDER: More flexibility in dry freight transport

June 2026 – The dry freight semi-trailer S.BO OPENSIDER is designed for applications where fast access to the goods, flexible loading processes and short throughput times are paramount. The vehicle is based on the previous S.KO folding wall semi-trailer.

The side walls, which open completely, allow direct access to the load even in locations with limited rear access, especially in urban use. This significantly accelerates loading and unloading processes and reduces downtimes at ramps. Occupational safety is also improved by minimising the need to step on the trailer.

The S.BO OPENSIDER is available for different application requirements: as an EU variant for 4x2 semi-trailer tractors with a 7,700mm wheelbase and as a Nordic variant for a 6x2 semitrailer tractor with a wheelbase of 8,130mm. For maximum flexibility, sidewalls that open on one or both sides are available, depending on the application.

Another focus is on safety and reliability in daily use. The FERROPLAST® box body meets the requirements of DIN EN 12642 Code XL, reliably protects the load from external influences and is therefore suitable for the transport of demanding dry freight.

The trailer offers a variety of equipment options for individual adaptation to different transport requirements. These include flexible solutions for load securing, double-decker systems and other optional specifications for special applications.
