Kögel tipper body wins inaugural German industry award

Kögel’s new tipper body has come out on top in the inaugural readers’ awards from German trade magazine ‘Truck & Trailer Welt’.

The new Kögel tipper body secured first place in the ‘TipperChamp2025’ category, with its low tare weight, well-balanced chassis, and wide, one-piece body cited as key factors behind its success.

First unveiled at bauma 2025, the Kögel tipper body impresses with an optimal balance between tare weight and payload. In its basic configuration, it weighs only about 5,200kg.

The wide, deep, one-piece welded body ensures excellent stability thanks to its lower centre of gravity. Manufactured from wear-resistant, quenched and tempered steel plate, it is ideally suited for transporting abrasive materials. In addition, a manually or electronically operated cover reliably prevents load loss during transport.

“With the Kögel tipper body, an extremely efficient, innovative, and ultra-light tipper body wins in the tipper category – offering users numerous advantages in demanding bulk material transport,” said Philipp Bönders, editor-in-chief of Truck & Trailer Welt and initiator of the 2025 TTW Reader’s Award.

“Our Truck & TrailerWelt community is highly knowledgeable and has recognised the decisive benefits of the Kögel tipper body – and accordingly voted it TTW TipperChamp 2025.”
