Special Builds

Pembrokeshire Tourist Information Centre

This 4.7m roll on roll off special body was built for Pembrokeshire Council for use with one of their existing vehicles. The trailer was to be deployed in remote parts of the Welsh coastline as a public information and advice centre. Designed to be self sufficient by using solar and wind power charging on board batteries, the trailer is able both to operate in remote locations and help show the merits of generating sustainable sources of power.



Racetech Gate Transporter

Racetech approached us with the dilemma of an ageing fleet of gate transporters that would not comply with new legislation and a new design of gates that needed to be moved around the country. When we witnessed the moving of gates as part of our learning curve, we realised we had a job on our hands!



Film Location Catering Trucks

Blackburn Trailers have been involved in the film industry for a number of years. In addition to our location catering trucks we’ve also produced vehicles and trailers for wardrobe, dining rooms, camera mounts, outside broadcast units and sound mixing. We can provide help and advice on new and second hand vehicles suitable for conversion, upgrade or perhaps adding equipment to an existing vehicle.



Kompak Build Aircraft Carrier

This Kompak light aircraft carrier was potentially fairly straight forward in principle. The aircraft, a Europa, has a wing span of a little over 8m and all up weight of approx 350 kgs not forgetting the loading ramps and winch. However the tricky bit was to make the whole lot legal behind a Vauxhall Astra!



St Johns Ambulance First Aid Trailer

We have produced a number of First Aid trailers for the St John Ambulance service and this particular trailer was designed to be used as a mobile incident unit.



Hampshire Christian Trust Dormitory

Kompak have made three of these trailers for our local charity Hampshire Christian Trust. They are mobile units for use in a rural setting in the New Forest for under privileged children and their families to have a holiday.



Mobile Police Station

The mobile police station was designed specifically for Sussex Police. The brief was to produce a mobile unit that would give high profile police presence in both rural and urban areas. The trailer was designed to be multi functional with on-board communications in the lockable crew area which also doubled as the units galley.
