Leading global manufacturer of high-quality construction equipment

Founded in 1848, today the Group is a leading global manufacturer of high-quality light and compact equipment. We provide a comprehensive one-stop offering, extending from development and production through sales and rentals to repairs and service – all designed to help customers increase operational efficiency.

The merger in 2007 has enabled us to considerably expand our compact equipment product portfolio. We now boast an unparalleled range of machines from over 300 product groups in the compact and light equipment segments. Over the coming years, we will be globally launching our range of high-quality compact equipment via our existing sales and service network. Thus far, these products have been exclusively distributed in specific European countries.

   
  Based on our own competitive analysis, we have captured a leading international position in numerous light equipment market segments, in particular in the soil and asphalt compaction and concrete technology areas. In view of our broad product offering, global footprint and high sales volumes, we also estimate that we have achieved a strong position in various other segments in this market.
   
  Competitive strengths:
 
  • Leading position across key markets
  • Outstanding product quality
  • Wealth of technical expertise and strong innovative drive
  • High brand visibility
  • Own global sales network
  • Focused, flexible production facilities and sophisticated logistics
  • Experienced management team
   
  Aiming for further growth
Prospects for the international construction market appear promising both for 2008 and in the long term. We are therefore aiming for sustained mid- to long-term sales and earnings growth, based on the following strategy:
 
  • Expansion of product portfolio in the light and compact equipment business segments
  • Global launch of products from the compact equipment business segment
  • Expansion of rental business in Central and Eastern Europe
  • International expansion, including Russia, Eastern Europe, India and China
  • Acquisitions to round off product portfolio
