AB Astra LT, operating in Alytus, with help from a team of scientists and engineers, has developed and produced a remarkable product, the Advanced Road Tanker for the food industry. The new tanker can transport liquid food products, such as chocolate, cream, oil, and similar things, maintaining the required temperature. The Advanced Road Tanker is a significant breakthrough in the tanker market due to its special features, including impeccable insulation, low weight, high-quality materials such as Duplex stainless steel, and so on. The tanker is expected to be a great success not only in Lithuania, but also in world markets, as it is an innovative product with no equivalent competing products at the present time.
