WHO WE ARE

The Wacker Neuson Group is an international organization, founded in 1848 in Dresden, Germany, employing around 6,000 people worldwide. As a leading manufacturer of light and compact equipment for the construction, landscaping, agriculture and municipal industries, the Group offers customers a broad portfolio of products, spare parts and related services.

Wacker Neuson opened its first affiliate outside of Germany in Hartford, Wisconsin in 1957, followed by an office, warehouse and production facility in 1958. Known as “the rammer company” for its signature soil compaction product, Wacker continued to grow and diversify its product range of light equipment and moved to a larger and more modern manufacturing facility Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin in 1986.

The merger between Wacker Construction Equipment AG and Neuson Kramer Baumaschinen in 2007 created a new Wacker Neuson brand, along with one of the largest equipment portfolios in the world. Currently, Wacker Neuson employs approximately 477 people in Wisconsin, covering R&D, engineering, production, operations, sales, logistics, aftermarket and marketing, and acts as the headquarters for the United States, Canada, Mexico and Latin America.

The history of Wacker Neuson is marked by a long line of innovations, many of which have revolutionized our entire industry. These milestones would not have been possible without our employees. Their passion, team spirit, commitment and drive have always been the keys to our success. At Wacker Neuson, we believe in a culture of mutual respect and agility, built on the values and mindset of a family enterprise.

In 2022, a cooperative agreement was announced between Wacker Neuson and John Deere for the design and manufacture of excavators in Wacker Neuson’s Menomonee Falls facility for distribution by both companies. This cooperation offers the opportunity for a very positive impact on Wisconsin, through the employment of people across different product development and manufacturing disciplines and support of local component suppliers. Staffing resources, especially from the union labor force at the plant in Menomonee Falls, will approximately double by 2027, in order to assemble all products being manufactured at that time.

A well-respected global company
