Towmate is a team of engineers, makers and problem-solvers, with experience across utilities, civil engineering, plant hire, landscaping and other demanding working environments.
We know no two operations are the same. The right solution starts with understanding the job, the challenges and what happens on site.
Our roots go back to 1995, when the business began supplying trailer parts from a garden shed. Since then, we’ve grown our expertise without changing the way we work: listen properly, solve the problem and look after people.
We work closely with our customers, combining their knowledge of the job with our engineering experience to find better ways of doing things. That means practical engineering, built around the job and not forcing the job to fit the equipment.
From the first conversation to the finished solution, we work as partners: sharing knowledge, challenging ideas and continually looking for ways to improve.
Because the best solutions come from good people, working together.

Why it matters
We know the work matters.
Our customers keep essential services running, maintain critical infrastructure, move equipment and get teams safely to site and home again.
What we design has a purpose beyond the trailer itself. We work alongside our customers to understand how they operate, identify what’s getting in the way and develop solutions that work in the real world.
Saving time
Improving efficiency
Protecting equipment
Making the job easier
Supporting safer working
Because when the work matters, the solution needs to work too.
How we work
If there’s a better way we’ll find it.
Respect the grind
We know the work isn’t always easy. We respect the people doing it and the effort it takes to get the job done.
Keep it tight
Details matter. We take responsibility, follow things through and make sure nothing gets missed.
Lift the bar
Good enough isn’t where we stop. We keep learning, testing and looking for ways to improve.
In it for the long haul
We care about relationships, not quick wins. With customers, suppliers and each other, we’re here to build something that lasts.

QA & testing
We test. We learn. We improve.
Good engineering doesn’t stop when something is built.
We test, challenge and refine our ideas, learning from experience and from the people who use our products every day. It’s how we keep getting better and keep finding better ways to solve real-world problems.
We understand that ease of maintenance is always key for any fleet user.
Our trailers have been designed with this in mind; keeping the components used across the range consistent and ensuring parts can be easily replaced are all part of what is built into Towmate Trailers as standard.
Our support for customers doesn’t just stop at the product. Purchasing a Towmate trailer is only the beginning of your journey with us.

Designed in-house, built in Britain
Every Towmate trailer is designed in-house by our own engineering team using CAD, then refined through feedback from the operators who use them every day. That loop between site and drawing office is how the range keeps improving.
Before a design goes into production it’s independently road tested by UTAC at Millbrook and VCA type approved, and our manufacturing is accredited to ISO 9001 for quality and ISO 14001 for environmental management.
Support for the life of your fleet
Components are kept consistent across the range, so parts are easy to source and replace and your fleet spends less time off the road. Servicing packages, finance and leasing options, and a warranty on our Standard and Pro models are all available.
With a growing dealer network across the UK, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, and customers in over 60 countries, there’s always someone who knows your trailer close by.
