Driving trailer safety and efficiency with Jost technology
Trailer technology provider Jost GB has outlined some of the key products in its range designed to help fleet operators ensure trailers are operated safely and efficiently.
“Jost GB continues to set the benchmark for safety, efficiency, and innovation in trailer technology, supporting operators across the UK transport sector,” said the company.
“At the forefront of our portfolio is the KKS automatic coupling system, which enables drivers to couple and uncouple semi-trailers at the touch of a button, with no need to leave the cab. This not only enhances driver safety by reducing exposure to roadside risks, but also delivers valuable time savings for fleet operators facing growing efficiency demands.
“Complementing this is Jost’s King Pin Finder, a camera integrated in a fifth wheel coupling – a simple yet effective 
solution designed to support accurate, safe coupling. Using camera technology, it helps drivers align the tractor and trailer with confidence, reducing the risk of damage, downtime, and costly repairs.”
For operators managing complex urban deliveries or heavy-duty applications, the company says its Tridec steering systems offer unrivalled manoeuvrability and flexibility.
“By reducing tyre wear and improving fuel efficiency, these systems deliver measurable savings while supporting compliance with tighter access restrictions in towns and cities,” said Jost GB.
“Behind all our solutions is a commitment to keeping fleets moving safely and efficiently. With a UK wide service and support network, and continuous investment in training and product development, Jost ensures that operators can adopt new trailer technology with confidence.
“As the industry navigates the twin challenges of sustainability and driver recruitment, innovations that reduce risk and boost efficiency will play an increasingly important role. Jost remains committed to working closely with manufacturers, fleets, and drivers to deliver the trailer technology of tomorrow, today.”
