Broshuis, in the Netherlands, has been selected by engineering and defence contractor KBR to supply twenty heavy duty 45 tonne trailers to the British Army.

The two-axle trailer was selected following demanding trials conducted by KBR over extreme terrain, said Pieter-Bas Broshuis. "We are delighted to have been selected and to have the opportunity to continue our excellent record in supporting the British armed forces."

In light of market conditions, the order was extremely welcome, added the company. It added that most of its customers are not in the defence field.
