Vervaet launches Hydro Trike 35 Years Edition
In the spring of 2025, Vervaet will celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Hydro Trike! The Trike started as a simple machine for contractors who were looking for solutions for the new manure legislation of the Dutch government in 1990. The Hydro Trike has now grown into a leader in the self-propelled market for liquid manure application. Approximately 1000 Trikes have been built over the years, most of them in the last 10 years. Because of the 35th anniversary of the Hydro Trike, Vervaet is launching a special 35th anniversary edition!
Excellence through Evolution
A prototype in 1990, a first series in 1991, a 5 wheel variant in 2020; a 5x5 version in 2021; continuous development, but always evolution. The Hydro Trike is characterized by the use of DAF engines, Claas cabins, axles from OMSI and, above all, its own cost-efficient transmission, VSG.
This, together with the excellent construction of the machine, guarantees the lowest cost price per m3 for many contractors. And that has been the case for 35 years! To serve all markets, the Quad 550 also followed in 2021 for export markets and 4-wheel riders in the Netherlands.
The Vervaet Hydro Trike 35 Years Edition is characterized by, among other things, the red-black color scheme and special stickers with the uniquely designed 35 Years logo.
The 3-wheelers now come standard, as do the 5-wheelers, with electronic central lubrication. A floor mat specially designed for the 2025 batch is standard in the cabin.
Market leader
Jonathan Hoekman: “A lot has changed in 35 years; also at Vervaet, but the Hydro Trike has always been leading in its market. The successful arrival of the Quad 550 underlines this, because Hydro Trike sales have not suffered. As a family business, now with the 3rd generation of Vervaet, we most certainly want to add another 35 years to this success.”
