R.M. Trailers Ltd. still in Business??

Does anyone know if R.M. Trailers Ltd. in New Alresford are still in business?
Trying to get some new roller assemblies for my swing beam, can't seem to find the same as I have online, so thought I'd try the trailer manufacturer
I tried phoning them and the phone was not answered, emailed them on Tuesday and no reply..

R.M. Trailers Ltd went into Liquidation in November 2011. I believe the brand name was bought up by another company, but I don't know if they are still running it.

Time flies, doesn't it?.. Maybe it was considerably longer than I thought. I contacted them about building a 360 degree rotating bed, flat bed, car transporter. Nothing was mentioned, but then I guess that sort of info isn't something you're going to share.

Sounds similar to the Hayling Trailers scenario. Real shame.

Tried phoning again today and got through on their original number T: 01962 732560

R.M. Trailers Ltd. went into liquidation and there assets were bought by Tex Engineering Ltd. (itself a division of Tex Holdings Plc)

Their original email address I used no longer works (sales@rmtrailers.co.uk) they can now be contacted by email at: rmtrailerstexengineering10@btconnect.com
