Zie Bijzonderheden CA – trailers with no recorded make in the Dutch vehicle register: collective page of heavy trailers, 39,000 kg gross vehicle weight
This page gathers trailers for which the Dutch vehicle register RDW records no make: "Zie Bijzonderheden" is Dutch for "see particulars" and serves in the register as a placeholder entry when no manufacturer is entered and the entry instead points to a separate field – it is not a vehicle brand. The model designations listed here with the CA prefix are registration type data, not manufacturer data. The model designations follow the pattern CA with a string of digits and letters, as is typical for semi-trailers in Dutch registration documents.

The register lists here 5 versions with unladen weights from 7,690 to 8,580 kg at a gross vehicle weight of 39,000 kg. Widths range from 2,430 to 2,500 mm, with a length of 12,300 mm on record.
With a gross vehicle weight of 39 tonnes against a comparatively low unladen weight, these are heavy semi-trailers for heavy-haulage and construction-site traffic, of the kind registered in Dutch haulage. At an unladen weight of around eight tonnes, payload exceeds 30 tonnes, matching the requirements for transporting construction machinery, steel parts or precast concrete elements.
On used examples of these heavy semi-trailers, the condition of the chassis and axles, the function of the air-brake system, the condition of the kingpin plate and load bed, and corrosion on load-bearing parts all matter; since the manufacturer is unknown, an independent technical inspection before purchase is advisable.

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.
