About Us

Discover why Bronco Built is the trusted choice across Australia. Founded over a decade ago by brothers Derek and Chad Mansur, we are proudly Australian-made and owned, based in Bathurst, NSW. Specialising in durable, customisable trays, canopies, and service bodies. With over 10 years of experience, we’re known for quality craftsmanship and exceptional service.

Building Bronco

Bronco Built started over a decade ago, initially offering only steel trays. Today, we’ve expanded to provide customisable steel and alloy trays, canopies, and service bodies, all engineered to adapt to our customers’ evolving needs.

Since our humble beginnings, we have invested in advanced technology needed to manufacture the best. In house, we have the following capabilities:

  • Laser Cutter 
  • Hydraulic Bender
  • 3D Design and R&D
  • Abrasive Blasting (7m x 5m Booth – Full Reclaim System)
  • Powder Coating Booth & Oven
  • Robotic Welding

Our tray design is flexible to our customers’ changing needs. All accessory mounting points are built into our product as standard, meaning add ons such as toolboxes, drawers, ladder racks, side steps can all be added when required.

We have partnered with multiple fitting agents across Australia, so chances are, there is a Bronco fitting agent near you. They can take care of your tub removals and tray fitments, meaning wherever you are in Australia, we have you covered!
