Bring it on Dennison

Dennison have been in the business of trailer manufacturing for over 40 years. We have a passion for engineering excellence, continuous product development and the highest standards of customer service.

At our modern factories at Naas in Co. Kildare and Lancaster, we manufacture skeletals, curtainsiders, tippers, platforms, machinery carriers and drawbar trailers and a range of specialist trailers, including the innovative sliding bogie trailers.

Dennison Trailers, still a family owned and run business, was started in Northern Ireland in 1964, making flatbed trailers (the company’s first trailer is still in existence and kept as a museum piece by the company), moving to a site just outside Dublin in 1970. In 1983, we opened our existing manufacturing plant in Naas. Dennison opened the manufacturing plant in Lancaster to serve the UK market in 1989.

Today, Dennison is a market leading manufacturer of semi trailers, with customers throughout Ireland and Britain, with a healthy export market too. In Ireland, Dennison are the market leaders in the supply of tipping trailers and in the UK Dennison dominate the skeletal trailer market. The company is also experiencing significant growth in sales of curtainsiders, platform and trombone trailers and the range of machinery carriers.

Throughout our history, Dennison has been an innovative company, with continuous research and development being at the core of the business.

In 1977, Dennison became the first and only company in Ireland to develop and manufacture our own tractor units, producing 250 Dennison trucks over fi ve years at a site in Co. Dublin.

In 2002, Dennison developed the concept of the unique sliding tipper trailer, which has brought benefits to operators of 8 x 4 rigid tippers of higher payload, greater fuel efficiency, more flexibility in operation and considerably greater manoeuvrability on site, including sites where access and space are limited. The outstanding success of the sliding tipper in the Irish market has led to the development of a range of sliding bogie trailers for construction industry customers, including the sliding mixer and sliding brick and block carriers.
