About our container trailer company

Uncompromising quality and customer satisfaction

A dynamic company with a surprising heritage.

It’s amazing to think that a company at the leading edge of container transportation can trace its origins to the days of horse and cart. Formed in 1878, Steelbro was founded by two brothers who set out to produce innovative, high quality solutions for the burgeoning transport industry. We are immensely proud of their legacy, and their purpose still drives us today.
It’s just one of a number of benchmark products we’ve created over the years, made possible by our steadfast commitment to uncompromising quality, research and development, and customer satisfaction.
