DEP Advantages
The key differentiator of the Micro trailer is the fact that unlike most trailers, where the cabin and load carrying zone are one unit, in the Micro trailer, the units are detachable. The Micro trailer is purely a base platform, which can be highly customized for any specific application. It can be used in a variety of applications- from mobile office, mobile dispensary, outdoor display unit, mobile lavatories, vegetable shops to exhibition stalls. It can prove of great use especially in remote areas. It can be combined with a detachable unit like a trailer, and if needed, a single cabin unit can be used to ferry multiple trailer units to and fro.
