Utility Trailer Manufacturing Co. Opens New Eagle Pass, Texas Facility to Support CBNA TRU Final Assembly Operation

CITY OF INDUSTRY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Utility Trailer Manufacturing Company, LLC is pleased to announce the opening of their new Cargobull North America assembly plant and warehouse in Eagle Pass, Texas.

As Utility Trailer and Cargobull North America (CBNA) continue rolling out new products, an additional facility has opened to boost production and support their cutting-edge innovations. Adjacent to the Utility Trailer Southeast Texas dealer location in Eagle Pass, Texas, this new Utility and CBNA facility will focus on the final assembly operation of CBNA transport refrigeration units (TRU). The plant will also work on final assembly of remote evaporators, solar panels, telematics hardware, and other essential TRU parts. The facility will also be a warehouse that will store materials and parts for CBNA and Utility.

“It’s an exciting time for Utility’s production efforts,” said Steve Bennett, President and COO for Utility. “The plant and warehouse are centrally located to best serve most of North America. Utility dealers can order CBNA parts directly with rapid response.” Along with the network of six conveniently located Aurora Parts distribution centers, the new Eagle Pass facility will further improve the accessibility and availability of CBNA parts and accessories.

The Cargobull 625 Hybrid (single-temp) and 655MT Hybrid (multi-temp) ultra-low emission TRUs are factory-installed options exclusively available on Utility’s 3000R refrigerated trailers.
