In the 5th Edition of the Amateur Radio Mail Order Catalog and Resource
Directory I list a number of tower manufacturers and dealers.  Beside Rohn
and Trylon those listed include:

PiRod, Inc.  High strength steel towers.
Aluma Tower  Aluminum towers to 100'
Heights Towers  Aluminum towers (have been sold by Amateur Electronics
Supply AES)...just moved to Florida
Telex/Hy-Gain  Steel crank-ups
McClaren Sales Aluma towers and special versions for van, trailers etc.
Universal Manufacturing  Aluminum towers sold by AES.
US Tower (formerly Tristao, Palmer Industries, Towermaster etc.)  Steel
crank-ups....largest mfg.
Glen martin Engineering..Hd aluminum towers and the HAZER tram for those
towers and Rohn 25/45.

Europeans might look into the VersaTower sold in the UK and Germany.

There are others who make towers but generally they avoid the ham market
as not enough $$ and too small.
