Built for daily professional forestry, the PALMS 12U combines a 12-ton nominal load capacity with a high-clearance, oval-frame chassis that helps the trailer glide over stumps and rough ground instead of hanging up. All hydraulic components are enclosed inside the frame, shielding them from impacts and debris while keeping service points accessible—reducing downtime and protecting your investment over the long term.
The 12U’s heavy-duty construction supports confident crane work, stable forwarding, and efficient extraction on challenging terrain. It pairs seamlessly with PALMS cranes and accessories, so you can tailor reach, lift capacity, bunks and load-secure solutions to your exact workflow—whether you’re moving short or mixed-length timber, staging wood for biomass/biofuel or animal bedding, or supporting contractor operations on landings and forest roads.

As the preferred NZ & AU dealer, ALFA Equipment will help you spec the 12U for your tractor and terrain, ensure compliant lighting/braking for local rules, and back you with demos, finance, parts, and nationwide after-sales support—so your trailer arrives ready to work and stays productive.
