Belgian trailer and tanker manufacturer Joskin is in expansion mode, building a new facility in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg to manufacture large tipping trailers and a range of muck spreaders.

Meanwhile, the manufacturer is also expanding its Leboulch facility in France.

Completion of the new 15,800m² facility, located on a 6.2ha plot at Esch-sur-Alzette (south of Luxembourg), is scheduled for the end of October, with installation of major internal equipment in January 2025 and the new factory expected to be fully operational by the third quarter of next year.

The French Leboulch trailer and muck spreader facility in La Vieille-Lyre (Normandy) sees the addition of a new 6,000m² building to increase production capacity by 40%.

The extension will include new welding bays, an automatic shot-blasting machine for large parts, and a painting area, scheduled for commissioning before the end of this year
