Why 4-Star?
Concept II Slats:
In 1995/96 4-Star Trailers designed and was awarded the patent on a
revolutionary slat designed to shed water and reduce the amount of visible welds
and heat distortion.
Prior to Concept II, aluminum slats were extruded in corrugated shapes with one
side of the corrugation welded to the side posts of a trailer. All manufacturers
using extruded aluminum slats utilized this style of slat to construct the outer
walls of their trailers. The welds on these slats are grossly visible in the
form of melt-through and heat distortion. Corrugated slats are difficult to make
