Thwaites specialise in supplying the highest quality dumpers on the market. The company was founded in 1937 by Basil Thwaites in Cubbington, Leamington Spa.
The company was originally founded as the Thwaites Agricultural Engineering Company. Its first dumper had three wheels and was powered by a six-horsepower single cylinder Lister Petter engine and a three-speed gear box. A four-wheel version followed in the early 1950s and the company was rebranded as Thwaites Engineering Ltd, as the production of agricultural products ceased. The company has focused on dumpers ever since and Thwaites continue to manufacture the highest quality dumpers on the market.
