Your Kitchen. Your Brand. Built to Move.

A food truck or mobile kitchen is one of the most demanding fabrication challenges there is — it needs to function as a commercial kitchen, survive being towed on NZ roads, meet health and safety requirements, and represent your brand from the moment it rolls up. Flaxton Iron builds mobile kitchens that do all of that.

We work with you from the initial layout design through to the finished build, integrating cooking equipment, service windows, storage, power, and plumbing rough-in into a trailer that's built tough and finished properly. Whether you're starting a food business or upgrading your existing setup, we build to your brief and your budget.
