The fitment of ABS on the trailer involves upgradation of the trailers. WABCO India followed a multi-pronged approach of bringing together key stakeholders such as trailer manufacturers, certifying authorities like the Automotive Research Association of India, the International Centre for Automotive Technology, state registering authorities, motor vehicle inspectors and regional transport officials. The collaborative approach resulted in seamless implementation of ABS on trailers across India.

The hazardous goods trailers for petroleum and industrial gases represent some of the vehicles that have been fitted with WABCO's ABS technology. WABCO India supported approximately 50 trailer manufacturers and large trailer operators for effective implementation of this initiative. Fleets which have adopted trailer ABS confirm enhanced vehicle safety, as well as improved fuel efficiency and tyre life.
