Kuiper KD – Dutch bespoke trailer and semi-trailer range built in Staphorst: 12 versions from 3.5 to 20 tonnes gross vehicle weight
Kuiper Wagenbouw is a Dutch vehicle builder from Staphorst (province of Overijssel) specialising in the design and construction of trailers and semi-trailers in one-off and small-series production, and which also converts van chassis such as the VW Crafter, Mercedes Sprinter or Mitsubishi Fuso into BE-category combinations. The KD range numbers its models with a four-digit type figure from KD 1102 to KD 9005, with the suffix VK marking a particular version of the base model.

The register lists 12 versions of the Kuiper KD with kerb weights from 1,650 to 7,740 kg and gross vehicle weights from 3,500 to 20,000 kg. Lengths range from 9,600 to 11,980 mm, widths from 1,750 to 2,550 mm.
With this span from the light 3.5-tonne class to the 20-tonne trailer, the KD serves both smaller trade and agricultural businesses and haulage firms that rely on individually built trailer solutions made in the Netherlands. The close combination of vehicle conversion and trailer building at the same site allows Kuiper to offer the towing vehicle and trailer as a matched overall solution.
When buying used, the frame and drawbar deserve particular attention for corrosion and accident damage, along with the axles, brakes and lighting, and, depending on the version, the condition of the load floor; since these are one-off and small-series vehicles, it is also worth asking Kuiper in Staphorst directly about spare parts.

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.
