About Fontaine Trailer

Fontaine Trailer has been in the flatbed trailer market for over 70 years. Bill Fontaine opened his first branch in 1945 in Birmingham, Alabama, in the United States. Later, he moved manufacturing facilities to Haleyville, Alabama, where the Fontaine Trailer headquarters remain to this day. A Marmon Group/Berkshire Hathaway company, Fontaine Trailer claims it is the largest platform trailer manufacturer in the U.S. The company focuses solely on producing Revolution aluminum, Velocity steel, and Infinity aluminum-steel combo flatbed and drop-deck trailers and more.

Fontaine Velocity Flatbed Semitrailer

Features

Evolving to meet the demands of new and existing Fontaine trailer buyers, the company has developed numerous innovative features such as:

• StirLITE Revolution aluminum floors. Manufactured with a friction stir weld tool borrowed from space shuttle engineers, Fontaine says they are stronger yet lighter than the aluminum floors found in many competing brands’ flatbeds. 
• RASR siderails. Fontaine claims its Routed Aluminum Side Rail (RASR) is 12 times stronger than industry standard-compliant siderails from other manufacturers. U.S. DOT-rated and secure, Fontaine says it provides a longer service life and requires less maintenance.
• Sliding tie-downs (turtles). These support up to 2,495 kilograms (5,500 pounds) each and can be moved or removed and stowed in an optional toolbox as needed.
• Wiring harnesses. Protected by an aluminum cover plate, this harness runs down the center of the trailer and is always protected from weather or other environmental damage.
• Twist locks. Fontaine put their locks behind the siderail to protect them from damage caused by forklifts and other wear-and-tear hazards. They allow Infinity and Velocity models to haul versatile loads from cargo or frac sand containers to conventional drop-deck freight.
