Gearing up for the 2015 Perth Truck Show

Free industry information seminars will add value to this year's Perth Truck and Trailer Show, which will run from July 24 to 26.

 

Visitors to this year’s Perth Truck and Trailer Show, held on July 24 to 26, will be offered a series of information seminars relevant to the industry.

The show, held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre, will host the seminars on Friday, July 24, and make them open to the public. The seminars are free to attend, but registrations are required and can be made via the Truck Show website at www.perthtruckshow.com.au.

Show Director Peter Woods says the seminars were an exciting new aspect of the event and offered valuable information.

“We find that the majority of show visitors on the Friday are from the vehicle industry, and would therefore benefit from these information seminars,” Woods says.

Woods says the topics are likely to include dangerous goods transport, reducing fatigue’s contribution to road crashes, chain of responsibility and trailer brake requirements.

Meanwhile, some of the biggest names in truck and trailer manufacturing will be exhibiting their latest products during the Perth Truck and Trailer Show, including Australia’s largest trailer manufacturer MaxiTrans, who will display products from its range of trailer brands Freighter, Maxi-Cube, Hamelex White, Lusty EMS and Azmeb.

The Southern Cross Industries WA group, a regular exhibitor at the Perth Truck Show dating back to 2007 will also make a return.

Southern Cross State manager Aaron Gilchrist says the company will be exhibiting custom built signature Southern Cross equipment, as well as a comprehensive display of spare parts.

Paul Wilson, sales and marketing manager Kenworth/DAF says CJD Equipment are proud to be the Kenworth and DAF Dealers in WA and equally excited to have recently celebrated a 30 year relationship with Paccar.

“We see this show as a great platform to which we can display the latest innovations from Kenworth and DAF.”

“We are certainly looking forward to the 2015 event, and showcasing new models to the WA market.”

The Perth Truck and Trailer Show will be presented by the Commercial Vehicle Industry Association which is a division of the Motor Trades Association of WA.
