Founded in 1918 as “Fruehauf Trailers Company,” was an American corporation and one of the leading manufacturers of trailers and semi-trailers in the French market. It was the first brand that was recognised all over the world. Its headquarters were in Detroit, Michigan, and its operational activities were based in Auxerre, France, where it employs over 600 people. It produces a wide range of tank trailers, including fuel, chemical, food-grade, and dry bulk tank trailers. All of these tank trailers are made of steel or aluminum by Fruehauf.
