A Global Heavy Equipment Manufacturer With Real History

Shantui is not a new brand trying to break into the market.

It has deep industrial roots going back to 1952, when it began as a state-owned machinery factory in China. Over the decades, it evolved into Shantui Construction Machinery Co., Ltd., officially established in 1993 and listed on the stock exchange in 1997.

Today, Shantui is:

  • A subsidiary of a major industrial group
  • A Top 50 global construction equipment manufacturer
  • Selling equipment in over 160 countries worldwide

This is not a startup. It is a global-scale manufacturer with decades of proven production.

From Bulldozers to Full Fleet Capability

Shantui built its reputation on one thing: bulldozers.

In fact, it became one of the largest bulldozer manufacturers in the world, producing thousands of units annually and competing directly with global leaders.

From there, it expanded into a full equipment lineup:

  • Excavators
  • Wheel loaders
  • Motor graders
  • Rollers and road machinery

Today, Shantui delivers complete earthmoving solutions across every major machine category.
