Cuppers SA – trailer and semi-trailer range from the Dutch livestock-transport specialist in Lichtenvoorde: from the light 3,500 kg class to the 28-tonne semi-trailer
Cuppers Carrosserieën is a family business from Lichtenvoorde in the Achterhoek region (province of Gelderland) that has been building bodywork, trailers and semi-trailers for commercial vehicles of all makes since 1960, earning a particular reputation for building livestock trailers; the company is now run by the third generation of the family and ships its vehicles worldwide. The SA range spans from light trailers to multi-axle semi-trailers; model designations such as SA 2-2, SA 4+4, SA 5-5 L, SA 8-16 L or SA 10-18 L distinguish the individual sizes and equipment levels within this span.

The register lists 15 versions of the Cuppers SA with kerb weights from 800 to 16,800 kg and gross vehicle weights from 3,500 to 28,000 kg. Lengths range from 9,560 to 14,370 mm, widths from 2,180 to 2,710 mm.
With this range the series covers both smaller operations running a single trailer and haulage firms running heavy semi-trailers for livestock and general cargo; Cuppers thus competes with numerous other trailer and semi-trailer builders in the Dutch-German border region.
On livestock trailers, ventilation, the floor and the partitions deserve particular attention for wear and hygiene condition; on the heavy semi-trailers, axles, brakes, air suspension and the frame should also be checked for corrosion and accident damage. Cuppers offers spare parts and repairs at its Lichtenvoorde site.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
