Powrwheel - The Story Begins In early 1990 when Powrwheel Limited was an aerospace engineering company a member of our electrical design team who was also an ardent caravanner had a “wonderful” idea to design and manufacture a motorised jockey wheel. The idea was to increase the product range of the company whose products at that time were strictly in aircraft handling equipment. After extensive design and testing the product eventually came to fruition and Powrwheel was launched during the Caravan Show at the NEC Birmingham in February 1991. The product has been through several upgrades, models and versions over the following 20 years and is still in manufacture at our factory in Christchurch today. Due to the success of the Powrwheel it encouraged the company to look further into caravan and trailer moving systems and placing it where it is today as the UK’s number supplier of these products.
