Schmitz Cargobull expands its dry freight portfolio
Schmitz Cargobull has expanded its range of dry freight trailers with the S.BO PACE+ and the S.BO MULTI. The manufacturer presented both vehicles at IAA TRANSPORTATION 2026. Each one responds to changing transport demands and the need for cost-efficient parcel logistics. Operators can provide capacity flexibly, keep vehicles available and cut running costs in daily use.
The two trailers serve different needs. Schmitz Cargobull developed the S.BO PACE+ for the high handling frequencies of parcel and standard dry freight work. The S.BO MULTI, meanwhile, covers a wide range of transport tasks with changing loads.
S.BO PACE+: built for parcel logistics
The S.BO PACE+ reaches the market in January 2027. It uses the newly developed FERROSTRUKT® technology, which pairs a steel surface layer with a honeycomb core. This combination delivers high impact and puncture resistance while keeping dead weight low. Operators can replace the sidewall panels if damage occurs, so repairs are simpler and downtime is shorter. The trailer carries payloads of up to 27,000 kilograms. It suits CEP service providers and standardised dry freight transport particularly well.
S.BO MULTI: one trailer for many tasks
Schmitz Cargobull designed the S.BO MULTI for companies that handle many different transport tasks with a single vehicle. An integrated double-decker system with keyhole plates adds capacity and carries up to 33 additional Euro pallets. The interior also works for palletised goods, general cargo, hanging clothing and vehicle parts. It copes just as well with bulky or loose goods.
Numerous load securing options let drivers adapt quickly to changing requirements in daily use.
Proven components and simple maintenance
Both trailers build on Schmitz Cargobull’s modular dry freight system. They use proven components, including the aluminium bulkhead, robust steel connection profiles and galvanised, bolted chassis constructions. The bodies meet the requirements of DIN EN 12642 Code XL. Schmitz Cargobull built them for a long service life and economical maintenance. Workshops can complete repairs with common tools, gluing and riveting techniques, which keeps vehicles on the road for longer.
TAPA-compatible security for high-value goods
Both vehicles share a focus on the safety of high-value cargo. Operators can order the S.BO PACE+ and the S.BO MULTI in a TAPA TSR1-compatible version. The security package includes electronic door locking that works through geofencing or remotely. It also features acoustic alarm systems with door contact sensors, a dedicated battery and monitoring functions in the TrailerConnect® portal. As a result, Schmitz Cargobull becomes the first manufacturer to offer a TAPA security package for dry freight trailers with roller doors.
Flexibility for a dynamic market
With these two vehicles, Schmitz Cargobull gives transport and logistics companies specialised solutions for a dynamic market. Whether the challenge is high parcel volumes in the CEP sector or changing tasks in industry and distribution, the new dry freight trailers support higher utilisation, greater flexibility and economical fleet use. Fleet managers who want to keep vehicles earning will find both models worth a closer look.
