About HUMER
HUMER manufactures and sells trailers, tandem low-loaders and vending vehicles for private and commercial customers. Founded in 1938 as a wagon smithy in Gunskirchen, the family-owned company produces low-loaders up to 30 t payload as well as construction machinery trailers and special bodies in its own production hall. Production uses steel hollow-profile construction with a galvanized steel chassis, steel side panel profiles and aluminium ramps; the steel components are hot-dip galvanized in a dipping bath. The portfolio ranges from general-purpose and box trailers to livestock trailers, horse trailers, refrigerated and tipper trailers, as well as food trucks, WC trailers and market stalls. In addition, as an authorized trailer service operation, HUMER performs §57a inspections for trailers from 750 kg to 30,000 kg and offers service, repair and conversion work for all brands. Products are sold via four own locations and four partner businesses in Austria, partly with preparations for registrations in Germany.
