This Krone TKS is a refrigerated semi-trailer — sometimes called a reefer trailer — designed to transport temperature-sensitive goods over road freight routes. Refrigerated semi-trailers of this type are a core product for Krone, a well-established German manufacturer of commercial trailers serving logistics, food distribution, and cold-chain transport across Europe.
The seller has two units available, one from 2012 and one from 2013; the listing price and year correspond to the 2013 example. Both are offered in used condition from Portugal. The trailers are equipped with autonomous refrigeration, meaning the cooling unit operates independently of the towing vehicle, allowing temperature control to be maintained regardless of the tractor's systems. A dedicated garage compartment is also present, providing a protected housing area — typically for the refrigeration unit or associated equipment.
A notable mechanical feature is the first axle lift, which allows the leading axle to be raised when the trailer is running light or partially loaded. This reduces tyre wear, lowers rolling resistance, and can contribute to fuel savings on the tractor unit during unladen or lightly laden runs.
Both units are located in Portugal and represent a practical option for operators requiring reliable cold-chain capacity with the independent refrigeration and axle-lift functionality noted above.
