Based in Peterborough, Bartelina Haulage is a family-owned business run by husband-and-wife team, Elina Zbaczyniak and Bartosz Zbaczyniak. Operating a fleet of six trucks and six trailers, the company provides container haulage services across the UK, primarily serving traffic through the ports of Felixstowe and London Gateway.
Explaining the decision to invest in KRONE equipment, Elina says: “As the business continues to grow, we wanted trailers that could offer the flexibility and reliability needed for container work across different operations. The KRONE Box Liners have proved to be a strong fit for our requirements.”
The sliding, extendable chassis design of the trailers enables Bartelina Haulage to transport a wide range of container sizes, from 20ft through to 45ft, providing greater operational flexibility and improved utilisation across the fleet.
“The versatility of the trailers is a major advantage for us,” adds Elina. “Being able to quickly adapt to different container sizes helps maximise efficiency and allows us to respond more effectively to customer requirements.”
A key factor behind the investment was the durability and build quality of the trailers.
“KRONE is a good-quality trailer,” says Elina. “The chassis is heavier and more durable than many other trailers on the market, and they have proved to be very reliable in operation.”
Built with robust steel construction, welded cross members and double longitudinal beams, the trailers are designed to withstand the demands of intensive container haulage work. They also benefit from KRONE’s 10-year warranty against rust penetration, supporting long-term reliability and helping to reduce whole-life operating costs.
Bartelina Haulage continues to expand its operations, providing container haulage services for customers across the UK logistics sector.
