Tank semi-trailers

The Sievering tank semi-trailers are designed for rough use on Africa's metalled and unmetalled roads. With more than 3,500 vehicles delivered, the design has stood the test of time over several decades.

An oval as well as a round series is offered. The oval series is designed for trans-regional fuel transport on metalled and good unmetalled roads. The main focus is on a good and stable handling with a low centre of gravity. The round series boasts an extremely robust design, which guarantees safe transport even on poor, unmetalled roads and tough off-road routes. This series is mainly used for fuel transportation to remote gold and diamond mines in Africa.
