Innovation
70 years of innovation through listening to customers
All farmers are unique, as are their requirements. We have been innovatively supporting them in their day-to-day tasks for 70 years.
Our handling solutions are directly linked to the needs of our users. Future users are closely involved in our product development process. A fruit grower who needs to move product pallets, or an agricultural contractor who wants to increase productivity in their handling activities; for 70 years we have been listening to farmers, in order to offer them quality implements and equipment that will not let them down.
