Read More (Goldhofer)Incredibly, the history of Goldhofer goes back two centuries, with the Goldhofer forge in Amendingen first mentioned in 1705. The company was formally established in 1946, at which time it manufactured production trailers. By the early 1960s, Goldhofer had built its first heavy-duty trailer, an early version of the trailers the company would eventually become well-known for. Today Goldhofer is a global manufacturer of trailers, semi-trailers, and heavy-modules, with plants covering over 100,000 square meters in Memmingen and Ostfildern.
Goldhofer makes on-road and off-road solutions for hauling heavy-duty and oversized cargo weighing between 20 tonnes and more than 10,000 tonnes. These solutions are ideal for a variety of loads, such as ballast for cranes and components for offshore windpower plants. Models include flatbed semi-trailers, semi lowloaders, semi lowloaders with drop deck, and combinable vehicles. In 2013, Goldhofer acquired Scopf, a world-leading manufacturer of conventional and towbarless aircraft tractors, baggage and cargo carriers, and other airport transports.
