MakBrent Construction Equipment
Trenchers & Multifunction Machines
Radio-controlled MakBrent trenchers cut clean, precise micro-trenches and mini-trenches for fibre optics, power cables, water and gas pipes, while multifunction machines switch between digging wheels, chains, cold planers, buckets and forks on the same site.

The MakBrent Legacy
MakBrent, part of the Garbin group in Agugliaro, Italy, has been building digging machinery since 1963. In 2014 it developed the world’s first radio-controlled multifunction trencher, so the operator can work at a safe distance from the cutting head and from traffic.
The construction range covers the MAK 150 TAURUS, MAK 75 EVO.1, MAK 50 and MAK 40 multifunction machines, the MAK 450, MAK 400 and MAK 200 wheel trenchers, road planers, excavation wheels and site attachments for the MAK machines, and wheel saws and road planers for excavators.
- Micro & Mini-Trenching — Narrow, clean trenches for fibre optics, power and telecom cables.
- Remote Control — Radio control keeps the operator away from the digging head and traffic.
- One Machine, Many Jobs — Swap wheels, chains, planers, buckets and forks with quick couplings.
- Less Reinstatement — Narrow trenches mean less spoil, less road space and faster repairs.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What does MakBrent make?
MakBrent, part of the Garbin group in Italy, builds radio-controlled multifunction machines, wheel trenchers, chain trenchers and cold planers for laying underground utilities such as fibre optics, power cables, and water and gas pipes.
What is micro-trenching?
Micro-trenching cuts a narrow, shallow trench to lay fibre optic ducts or cables with minimal disruption to roads and pavements. MakBrent wheel trenchers such as the MAK 200, MAK 400 and MAK 450 are built for it.
Are MakBrent machines remote controlled?
Yes. Radio remote control is standard on the multifunction machines and wheel trenchers, so the operator can work at a safe distance from the digging head and from traffic.
How deep can MakBrent trenchers dig?
From 200 mm with the MAK 200 micro-trencher to 1,400 mm with the MAK 75 EVO.1 chain trencher.
Can I get MakBrent parts and service in the UK?
Yes. Conagri provides sales, genuine parts, servicing and technical support for MakBrent machines across the UK.
