The AeroCurtain is a design originated by Alloy Bodies Ltd back in 1994 and derived from our AeroLuton body. It utilises the same aerodynamic front pod and proves more cost effective than a conventional curtainsider design with an independent cab air management kit, but also provides useful storage above the cab accessed from inside the body.

As with the focus on many of our bodies, the AeroCurtain provides an aesthetic improvement over conventional body designs giving you the ideal advertisement for your product.

Load securing on curtainsiders

Anyone operating curtain sided bodies on their fleet needs to understand their responsibility to ensure the load they are transporting is sufficiently and effectively restrained, ensuring the safety of the operatives when loading and unloading and the cargo itself. VOSA currently have over 300 trained roadside inspectors patrolling our roads, enforcing recommendations and codes of practice for load restraint on goods vehicles.

We offer a number of satisfactory, high quality load restraint systems and will offer advice regarding suitable restraint mechanisms that can be fitted to our products. As the operator/driver it will be your responsibility to act in accordance with industry guidelines and ensure safety and security.

It is good practice to conduct a suitable risk assessment for all types of load to be carried.
