Products

Our commercial vehicle products have been engineered specifically to provide the most efficient and cost-effective results for our clients.

The WR AeroKit™ is designed to work as a complete set for tractor unit and trailer. However, the various components will also deliver savings independently, hence the WR AeroKit™ is flexible enough to cater for the different demands of individual fleet operators. From bumper turning vane and air dam combinations for car transporters, to trailer-only kits for supermarket operations, we work with operators to deliver the solution that will provide the optimum benefits and cost efficiency.
