Successful fair in Gothenburg, Construction Live, Sweden!



It was the first time that the Construction Live exhibition in Gothenburg was held. In glorious weather loads of visitors came. The reception for BIGAB was maybe a little bigger than usual, but we were also in the region of the country where we sell most hook trailers. Our new dump trailer, BIGAB T8, attracted much attention. Mainly through the possibility of moving the bogie but the price also attracted considerable attention. 73 000kr for a trailer entirely produced in high strength steel.

Thank you to everyone who visited us in Gothenburg!

FARMA is a success


FARMA is today, twenty years after the launch one of forest Europe's strongest brands. Then the product line consisted out of one model. Today, it is almost possible to vary indefinitely. This has quite much to do with the large portion of sales in Europe.


Over the years, FARMA has grown strongly in many markets. Much thanks to persistent advertising for many years. The other day, this fine Polish Journal arrived to the office with the most beautiful and now a really popular trailer on the front cover, FARMA CT 8.5-14 4WD.
