The Krug range includes both stock- and highly customised solutions. The current highlight is a series of standard modules with lengths ranging from 4.6 to six metres. Clients can choose from a great selection of 20 different interior layout options, which match most of the existing off-road truck chassis. “The concept of standard modules is built around multiple pre-designed projects,” Vitali Knorr says. “This allows us to keep our products cost effective and fast to manufacture.”Thanks to its highly skilled team of engineers and CAD designers, Krug Expedition is also capable of developing customised complex projects on demand and launching them into production. A trusting on-going relationship with customers is highly valued at Krug Expedition, and after-sales support is continuously available.
