How they Build the Worlds Toughest Trailer

What happens here

Don and Josh position a black CargoMax trailer bed (separated from its frame) on a gravel surface. Don then expertly maneuvers a JCB telehandler, weighing 22,000 pounds, to drive directly over the plastic trailer bed. The bed visibly deforms under the weight of the telehandler's tires but quickly springs back to its original shape once the telehandler passes, showing remarkable resilience. This demonstrates the superior durability and 'memory' of the polyethylene material.

Goal: Visually demonstrate the exceptional durability and flexibility of the CargoMax trailer bed material.

Tools and materials

  • CargoMax Trailer Bed — The object enduring the durability test
  • JCB Telehandler JCB — Applying extreme weight to the trailer bed

so this is the bed for the flow cargo Max trailer [Applause] I wonder what this looks like so as the bed for the trailer you can see some of them in the background over there pre-assembled and this this all came about one day when one of the flow cargo Max Trailers was totaled out by a tree in one of their customers
