Johnson Refrigerated Truck Bodies unveiled its new POWERplatform system at the National Truck Equipment Assn.'s Work Truck Show last month.

The integral drop-floor platform, offered on the company's 16- to 26-ft. Premier refrigerated truck bodies, is designed to speed multi-stop direct store delivery of refrigerated products.

“With the POWERplatform,” Greg LaFrance, director of sales & marketing, told FLEET OWNER, “there's no need for the driver to unfold and fold a liftgate at each stop. Instead, the driver can ride with the cargo on the platform's floor. That increases productivity while reducing driver fatigue and worker comp claims.”
