About Rohr Spezialfahrzeuge

Rohr Spezialfahrzeuge GmbH, based in Straubing, is a German manufacturer of refrigerated box vehicles, tanker vehicles, airfield tanker vehicles and military tanker vehicles. The company, with around 180 employees, manufactures temperature-controlled box vehicles for German food retail corporations as well as tanker vehicles for fuel and heating oil distribution, and supplies the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) with military tanker vehicles, including the heavy 8x8 road tanker (FSA). In addition, special vehicles for agricultural transport and live animal transport are produced. The company's roots date back to 1850, when a smithy was founded in Straubing. After an insolvency petition by Rohr Nutzfahrzeuge GmbH in 2016, the company was taken over by the Austrian Kässbohrer Transport Technik and renamed Rohr Spezialfahrzeuge GmbH. In addition to new vehicle manufacturing, the company offers customer service, spare parts, repairs, vehicle refurbishment and a service network.
