Where Passion Meets Heavy Metal
What began in 1985 as a passionate hobby in a small workshop has evolved into an internationally active, medium-sized family business. At Wagner, we do not build off-the-shelf vehicles—we create one-of-a-kind originals.
Whether it involves robust agricultural trailers, complex commercial bodywork, or precision crane installations—as an authorized Palfinger service center—everything we offer comes from a single source. From the initial design drawing and the hand-welded frame made of high-strength steel to custom paintwork in our in-house facility, every step of the manufacturing process takes place right here at our site in Deiningen.
Our Philosophy: Quality over Quantity
We view ourselves as a specialized custom manufacturer—one that finds solutions precisely where standard models fall short. Whether it involves custom-built vehicles for beer transport, bespoke slurry tankers, or complex truck bodies equipped with Palfinger loader cranes, we guide you through every step of the process—from the initial sketch to final in-house assembly. To us, quality means ensuring that your vehicle continues to perform its duties reliably even after decades of heavy-duty use, and that we can reproduce the exact replacement parts you need at any time.
