The logo of the company.

Mainz Träger is a human company. Mainz Träger designed and built the Mainz Träger Dynamik, a small sport utility vehicle.[1] The company apparently had contracts with Traxus Heavy Industries, as several containers bearing Mainz Träger's logo were scattered throughout Traxus' Factory Complex 09.[2] Multiple advertisements for Mainz Träger were posted throughout the city of New Mombasa before its eventual destruction.[3]

The company's headquarters were located in New Alexandria on Reach. They were destroyed on August 26, 2552 when the city was glassed by the Covenant.[4]

Trivia

  • The company's name may be a reference to the German city of Mainz, Germany, birthplace of the modern printing press. It may also be where the company was founded. "Träger" is German for "carrier". As such, the translated name of the company is "Mainz Carrier."
  • Mainz Träger may be a parallel of the present day company, Mercedes-Benz.
