Tantri

Tantri Manufacturer of trailers, passenger coaches, towers, and tanks Welcome to Tantri – a legacy of excellence in heavy steel fabrication since 1979. Founded by Mr.

John Haputantri, a distinguished ex-Sri Lanka Navy officer and seasoned boiler inspector, Tantri Marine Engineering Company embarked on a journey dedicated to ship repairs, specialising in both engines and hull. Over time, our dedication to excellence led us to expand our services to include container repairs for ship operators, marking the genesis of our commitment to quality and innovation. In 1

982, Tantri proudly introduced its pioneering trailer, a testament to our relentless pursuit of innovation. By 1986, commercial production commenced, laying the foundation for Tantri Trailers (Pvt) Ltd, our manufacturing arm established in 1991 to meet the increasing demand for trailers. Since then, our expertise continues to grow rapidly, enabling us to design and manufacture a diverse array of trailers and logistics solutions tailored to meet the evolving needs of our global clientele. Today, Tantri stands as the premier heavy steel fabricator in the industry, with a robust capability to manufacture and export to over 35 countries worldwide. We pride ourselves on our ability to meet the unique needs of our clients. We offer customised orders, tailoring our products to fit the specialised requirements of our clients, ensuring maximum satisfaction and functionality. Our commitment to quality is underscored by our certification from DNV ISO 9001-2008, affirming our ability to design, manufacture, market, sell, and provide exemplary after-sales service. At Tantri, we are not just about products; we are about people. Our success is deeply rooted in the talents and dedication of our team, who embody our values of integrity, innovation, and teamwork. We believe in fostering a supportive community within Tantri, where every member is valued and empowered to contribute their best. At Tantri, we remain steadfast in our dedication to innovation and advancement.

Sri Lanka's tower construction sector is growing. Building the workforce that sustains it requires industry and training institutions to work together.

On 11 June, Tantri, in collaboration with Mercy Education Campus, held a structured recruitment and awareness programme at Mercy Vocational Training Center — the first industry activation under a Memorandum of Understanding signed in February 2026.

Current trainees, past graduates, and parents attended a three-phase session covering career pathways in tower construction, joint trainee assessments, and direct recruitment interviews for Rigger and Multi-Skilled Technician roles across active Tantri projects.

Developing the sector means developing the people who build it.

Last week, we visited the Boossa Vocational Training Authority in the Southern Province.

We held a recruitment lecture for their painting trainees and donated industrial fans to support the institute's work.

Today, two of those teams are part of our operations at Tantri.

Skilled trades deserve investment. We are glad to play a part in that.

Eid Al-Adha Mubarak from all of us at Tantri.

On this blessed occasion, we are reminded of sacrifice, gratitude, and community. Values that go beyond faith, and speak to how we believe business and life should be conducted.

To our staff, partners, clients, and communities observing Eid Al-Adha today, may this occasion bring peace, blessings, and closeness to those you hold dear.

106 tons. 41 metres. Through Colombo. At night.

Tantri Trailers successfully completed the transportation of a Cement Ball Mill from the Port of Colombo to DHT Cement, Kerawalapitiya, on a specialised Schnabel Trailer configuration with a total operational weight of approximately 130 tons.

The cargo measured 17m in length and 5m in diameter. Moving something this size through active urban infrastructure requires more than equipment. It requires a route planned to the centimetre, clearances secured across multiple agencies, and a team that executes without margin for error. The operation ran at night.

We thank Sri Lanka Ports Authority, Sri Lanka Customs, Sri Lanka Police, the Road Development Authority, and the Registrar of Motor Vehicles for their coordination and support.

To the Tantri team, this is the work.

Not every load fits on a standard trailer.

Some need a lower deck, a stronger build, and a trailer that was designed around the job.

The Drop Bed Trailer handles construction machinery, agricultural equipment, and heavy industrial loads. Built for operators who can't afford downtime or damage.

If you're moving heavy equipment and need the right trailer for it — let's talk.
