Innovation brings efficiency, efficiency brings profitability.
At Sleipner, we innovate to bring you efficiency by means of mobility.

Wherever personnel can be trained and Sleipner products maintained, we are there. From mines and quarries to contracting sites, Sleipner is rolling the wheels of change – bringing you profitability with mobility.
Legend and history
The legend behind the name
The Sleipner timeline
1996
First excavator on wheels
The first prototype of what was later to become the Sleipner E Series is built. Designed for a 90-tonne excavator, the first Sleipner dolly has proven its reliability by remaining in active use to this day.
2004
First delivery to South America
Our first exploration outside Europe was a delivery of Sleipner E Series dollies to South America. The response from users was very positive.
2005
First delivery to Africa
Yet another market to conquer was Africa – more specifically Ghana, the largest gold producer on the continent. What started as a single delivery has grown to more than ten customers in different parts of Ghana.
2007
First delivery to Asia & Oceania
Indonesia is the top exporter of thermal coal in the world, so no wonder our first delivery to Asia & Oceania was to an Indonesian coal mine. Soon after that, iron mines in Western Australia also had Sleipner equipment.
2013
First delivery to North America
The last continental to be conquered by Sleipner equipment was North America following the delivery of Sleipner dollies to a gold mine in northern Canada.
2020
Over 50 countries have Sleipners
Over the years, Sleipner dollies and lowboy trailers have been delivered to over 50 countries already.
2021
New third generation DB Series
Even the good can be improved through ceaseless R&D. The third generation of Sleipner DB Series lowboy trailers launched a new era in terms of multipurpose versatility, enabling them to accommodate all kinds of pit equipment besides drills and bulldozers: excavators, wheel loaders, trucks, bucket, pumps, light towers. Imagination sets the limits!
2023
Dealer network covers most continents
Even the best equipment is of limited use without proper service and support. That’s why Sleipner has been building a comprehensive dealer network that covers most corners of the Earth. But we still have something new up our sleeve – stay tuned for new developments!
