Very interesting batches of old pics, including a few Dutch-made Kromhouts.

I was just wondering who the main players are in the heavy haulage trailer market. Having almost no knowledge of this area, I searched in Google and came up with a couple. I’m sure Patrick and Danne could come up with many more.
Nooteboom
Nooteboom Trailers BV, a family business founded in 1881, is an international organisation offering their customers complete solutions in the field of abnormal transport. Nooteboom designs and builds trailers of the highest quality with a payload of 20 to 200 tonnes.
Doll
Doll is a German company founded in Oppenau, Black Forest in 1878, you will now find DOLL Fahrzeugbau on the road the world over.
Andover Trailers
Andover Trailers is a British company based at Andover with numerous types of trailers including low-loaders.
andovertrailers.co.uk/products/ … w-loaders/
MAX Trailer
MAX Trailer - is the result of over 50 years experience in the construction of trailers and semitrailers. MAX Trailer is part of the well-known Faymonville group and benefits from a large know-how and top production infrastructures.
Well i would say Faymonville thats my favorite. At least for the big trailers.
If its a stepdecktrombone i like broushuis. Well then i really like my VANG but not so big outside norway and Sweden.
Danne
Do you ever pay attention Johnny? This has been discussed many pages ago… or is your short term memory not working properly
Anyway, you forgot to put some “big” names in your list, sorry to correct you on a couple of names mate,
-
Nooteboom, my weapon of choice, even someone like you can figure the workings out, strongly built (especially the older ones), good aftersales.
-
Broshuis, when they came out with their SL axles that surely rocked the boat. Not as tough built as Nooteboom, but good aftersales without the arrogancy of Nooteboom
-
Faymonville, aka playmobille… only worked with a lowloader of them once, and I did’t find it as easy to work with as a Nooteboom, but they do sell a lot of trailers nowadays, real bargain seller they are.
For the reallly heavy stuff there are only a couple of names that come to mind,
-
Scheuerle
-
Goldhofer
-
Nicolas, although they’re going into administration next year
-
Cometto
The above are the main competitors on the HH market, and then there are others for those who want more a specialised product,
-
King, solid, bullet proof trailers, however, most of them were sold only in the UK
-
Andover, see above
-
Doll, they are the nr.1 in dollies, used for timber transport and long beams and such
