Schaften Rental and Goldhofer Agree Major Transport Equipment Deal at CONEXPO 2026

30-Second Takeaway


Heavy transport specialist Schaften Rental has agreed a major equipment package with Goldhofer Transport Technology at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 in Las Vegas. The deal includes hundreds of axle lines of THP-SL modular trailers along with a significant number of PST-SL-E self-propelled transporters, expanding Schaften’s global heavy transport capabilities.



Schaften Rental Expands Fleet with Goldhofer Transport Systems


Schaften Rental and Goldhofer Transport Technology have strengthened their long-standing partnership with a major equipment agreement announced during CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 in Las Vegas.


The package deal includes a large order of modular heavy transport equipment, representing a significant investment in Schaften Rental’s transport fleet.

The agreement highlights the continued collaboration between the two companies in delivering advanced heavy transport solutions for global projects.


Hundreds of THP-SL Axle Lines Included in the Deal


A key element of the agreement is the delivery of hundreds of axle lines from Goldhofer’s THP-SL modular trailer system. The THP-SL platform is designed for heavy-duty transport operations and can be configured in various combinations depending on the load requirements.


These modular trailer systems are widely used for transporting:

  • Industrial plant components

  • Heavy machinery

  • Infrastructure elements

  • Energy sector equipment


Their modular design allows operators to adjust the number of axle lines and transport configurations depending on project requirements.


Addition of PST-SL-E Self-Propelled Transporters


In addition to the modular trailer systems, the agreement also includes a significant number of Goldhofer PST-SL-E self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs).

This marks a new addition to Schaften Rental’s fleet, expanding its range of transport solutions.


The PST-SL-E is a self-propelled platform designed for complex heavy transport operations where precise manoeuvring and independent movement are required.


These transporters are used worldwide for moving extremely heavy loads such as:

  • Industrial modules

  • Energy infrastructure components

  • Bridge sections

  • Shipyard structures


The system has become a proven and widely used solution in the global heavy transport industry.


Strengthening a Long-Term Industry Partnership


The agreement represents another milestone in the long-standing partnership between Schaften Rental and Goldhofer Transport Technology. Both companies have collaborated on multiple heavy transport projects in the past, and the latest order further strengthens their cooperation in delivering large-scale transport capabilities for global infrastructure and energy developments. By expanding its fleet with both modular trailers and self-propelled transporters, Schaften Rental is increasing its ability to support complex heavy logistics operations worldwide.
