About the Böckmann Family
A family with a passion for horses, and a desire to create simple transportation that allows the horse to ride in comfort and safety - arriving ready to perform at their best.
Tradition, know-how, but also pioneering spirit and innovative energy - these are the hallmarks of the Böckmann brand. It all starts with Anton Böckmann, who passed on his passion for horses to his 4 sons. From the first pony trailer built by a loving father, to serial production for more than 65 years - Böckmann has remained a leader in the trailer industry. Now offering a huge range of trailer models, the horse trailer production remains the hallmark. Horse transport, from the simple horse trailer through the line of horse trucks, to specialty transport such as Lufthansa transport boxes speak for the high quality trailers found across 33 countries, world-wide. Klaus Böckmann in conjunction with the 3rd generation of both Justus and Stella Böckmann, see an exciting future for the industry.
The family are more than just a transportation company. With their feet firmly planted in the breeding, showing and training side of horses, the Böckmann's live and breathe the equine industry. Over the years, such well-known Stallions as the 2008 Hanoverian Stallion of the Year - De Niro, and others such as Quattro, Cordalme Z and Clinton I, have been staples of the breeding program. Today, with names like Fidertanz, Floriscount and Check Me, one knows the quality of the Böckmann Program. Gilbert "Gilli" Böckmann oversees this renowned private breeding farm.
