In 1964, Phil Larochelle Équipement Inc, was the first manufacturer to introduce frame mounted V-Hoppers to the province of Quebec. Available in capacities ranging from 7 cubic yards to 14 cubic yards, the LAROCHELLE family of V-Hoppers remains the benchmark in V-Hopper quality to this day.

Whether you are looking for a fixed frame mounted unit, a dumping V-Hopper with tailgate for easy unloading of materials or a Unit adapted to rapid interchange systems such as the LAROCHELLE SIR-100, we have a solution for your application. Our V-Hopper spreaders are available in the traditional external brace design (carbon steel) or in a braceless elliptical design (carbon or stainless steel) with multiple spreading configurations:

  • Front discharge (left, right, central or simultaneous left and right)
  • Rear discharge (left, right, central or simultaneous left and right)

When it come to pre-wetting capabilities, a modular system ranging from 200 litres to 1200 litres is available using the same components as the BTU product family. Other compatible components across product lines include cross conveyors and chain components allowing customers to minimize the number of spare parts needed across their entire fleet. As with other LAROCHELLE products, ease of maintenance and cleaning are central design elements. Choose the gear that is right for you. Choose LAROCHELLE!
