Timpte: Innovating Transportation
Launched in 2020, the Timpte Equipment Trailer product line offers a lineup of premium trailers from car haulers to heavy duty equipment, split tilt, utility trailers, and more to come! Conveniently sold at our Factory Direct Customer Support Centers and Authorized Dealer network, these trailers are available across North America. Today the equipment trailer operation is housed in the new Lincoln Manufacturing Center, a 190,000-square-foot facility in the Industrial Air Park of Lincoln, Nebraska. Before the opening of this facility in 2025, our equipment trailer product line was housed in David City, Nebraska, the same home as our Timpte Super Hopper manufacturing center.
As the new home for equipment trailers, the Lincoln Manufacturing Center isn’t just about scaling up production — it’s about redefining the standards of trailer quality. Timpte is deeply committed to creating the best products in the market, and this facility is central to achieving that goal. With an expanded production footprint and a hose of new capabilities, we are ready to set the bar higher for the entire industry.
What makes us unique?
Aluminum Construction
Aluminum outperforms steel for trailers with better corrosion resistance, lower maintenance, and improved towing. It’s lighter, enhancing fuel efficiency, and Timpte’s advanced techniques ensure superior quality and durability.
Mechanically Fastened Joints
Timpte is committed to building the highest quality trailer in the market. By building our trailers using mechanically fastened joints, we can achieve maximum strength, durability, and longevity out of the aluminum.
Variety of Available Models
Timpte offers versatile trailers to suit various needs, including Ramped, EZ Load Drop Deck, Split Tilt, Deck Over, and Gooseneck. These styles are part of the Motorsports and Powerhouse series, with different GVWs for diverse applications.

TIMPTE ANNOUNCES NEW ECOMMERCE PLATFORMS
DAVID CITY, Neb. May 20th, 2026 — Timpte, Inc., a leading manufacturer in the agriculture and transportation industry, today announced the launch of two new ecommerce platforms designed to better serve customers and expand access to its growing portfolio of products and aftermarket solutions.
The new platforms, Thunder Armor store thunderarmorusa.com and the Timpte Equipment Trailer store timpteequipmenttrailers.com, represent a strategic step forward in how Timpte connects with customers by offering direct-to-end-user purchasing capabilities alongside its established dealer network.
“Our customers’ needs are evolving, and so are their buying behaviors,” said Tim Carpenter, President & CEO. “These platforms allow us to meet customers where they are while maintaining the strength of our traditional channels. It’s about creating more ways to do business with Timpte.”
The Thunder Armor platform showcases Timpte’s line of premium aluminum truck bed covers, manufactured by its Thunderstone Manufacturing division, and designed for durability, security, and all-weather performance. The site allows customers to easily identify the correct product for their vehicle and purchase directly online.
The Timpte Equipment Trailer Store offers a streamlined buying experience for aluminum equipment trailers and related products, supporting both commercial and consumer customers. The platform is designed to simplify product selection, provide transparent pricing, and improve overall purchasing convenience.
“The ability for us to transact directly with our customers in this fashion allows us to better serve and communicate with the market,” said Dean Powell, SVP Sales & Marketing at Timpte. “Our quality, durability, and now speed to market are advantages that will continue to set our products and services apart from the competition.”
The launch of these platforms reflects Timpte’s continued investment in innovation and customer experience. The company has expanded its capabilities in recent years, including the addition of new product lines and advanced manufacturing perations at its Lincoln, Nebraska facility, which supports truck covers, equipment trailer production, and aftermarket distribution.
“These new platforms are an important evolution for Timpte,” said Matt Ondrejko, Director of Marketing. “While our core dry bulk trailer business continues to be built on strong relationships through our dealer and Customer Support Center etwork, we recognized an opportunity to better serve customers seeking equipment trailers, truck bed covers, and aftermarket solutions through a more direct and accessible digital experience.”
The new e-commerce sites were developed through collaboration between Timpte’s internal teams and a network of marketing, sales, and technology partners, ensuring a seamless user experience aligned with the company’s long-standing commitment to
quality and service.
Both platforms are now live and available to customers nationwide.
