CV Air Systems Limited Bessie – Spannerless airlines system

CV Air Systems Limited was incorporated in February 2023 to bring together the expertise and resource to develop the market for a Spannerless Airline System for HGV trucks patented by the inventor in 2009 and 2010.

The system allows a driver with minimal instruction to replace a damaged airline with an onboard spare in a matter of minutes.

This avoids the cost of a breakdown callout but, in the world of JIT logistics, it more importantly means that delivery slots are not missed and perishable freight is not binned.

The cost to potential savings ratio is enormous – the system can be retrofitted to existing fleet vehicles or specified as a PDI addition.

The system has an extensive acceptance testing history with fleet operators such as Menzies, Culina and Gregory’s and, more recently, Amazon employing it.

It has been assessed by DVSA [previously VOSA] and is MOT compliant with EC Directive 71/320/EC which requires the airline to be a fixed part of the towing vehicle.
