GLOBAL OUTLOOK,

We work at the forefront of haulage technology to keep your fleet on the road and off the repair list. Our specialist experience, knowledge and expertise enables us to offer a broad range of technically tailored options – meeting your exacting needs.
On top of our world-class products, we support our customers just as well as we service their fleets – doing the right thing, in the right way, at the right time, to build valued long-term partnerships that go the distance.

Combining our fifth wheel expertise and service ethos to ensure your fleet will always be fit for the long haul.
Just like many of our long-term partnerships, we’ve been around for a while. Our expertise has grown steadily since John Fontaine founded the Fontaine Truck Equipment Company back in 1940.
Soon after, he invented the very first pressed steel fifth wheel and we’ve been pushing the boundaries ever since to become a global fifth wheel manufacturer.

As an integral part of the Marmon Group, we operate within the Highway Technology sector – which services the heavy-duty truck industry with a wide range of high quality truck and trailer components, including fifth wheels.
Marmon Holdings Inc is part of Berkshire Hathaway Inc, a global diversified industrial organisation. This means we have the support of a global group, but at the same time, the independence of a niche technology manufacturer.

As the inventors of the world-renowned TechLock® system, we work at the forefront of automotive safety technology.
This means you can feel safe in the knowledge that we are continuously improving haulage safety standards.

Haulage is a tough, uncompromising business and your equipment needs to be fit for purpose.
This is why we design, develop, manufacture and test the most robust and reliable fifth wheels on the market… keeping you on the road and off the repair list.

We provide on and off-road options for standard, medium or heavy duty use – alongside a host of features that can be tailored to meet your exacting requirements.
So whether you’re moving hotdogs or heavy logs, we’ll have a set-up that fits the bill.

In the transport and haulage business, time really is money.
Our responsive sales and service teams can be relied upon to quickly and efficiently help you in any way they can – with a friendly smile and a steely determination to get the job done right first time.

We believe our whole Fontaine Fifth Wheel ‘package’ will keep you fit for the long haul by saving time and hassle.
We do this by providing safe, reliable, versatile and efficient fifth wheels – coupled with first-class support from our experienced team.
