Model: HO gauge. More than ten years ago, a silo semi-trailer truck with MAN as the tractor appeared under the name Preben Hansen. Demstrup Autotransport has been in the silo truck business for over 45 years and transports goods (powder or granulate) through Denmark with over 70 tractor units. A limited edition Scania CS 20HD udder silo semi-trailer is implemented here.
The model is made of plastic, painted and printed.
Wilhelm Hergenröther founded the company in Nuremberg in 1949. The company name is composed of the name Hergenröther Patent. Initially, the company produced model railway accessories. In 1961, Riwa-Plastik, a plastic parts manufacturer for the photo and phono industry, was founded.
In 1965, Herpa was taken over by this company. Both brand names continue to be used. The first 1/87th scale car model was presented at the Nuremberg Toy Fair. Two years later, the first truck model in the same scale followed. Over the years, the magazine "MASS:STAB" is published. Since then, six copies have been published annually.
