Machinery & vehicles family

A machine is judged by its working hours, and by the part delivered the day it breaks down.

China has become a major producer of construction machinery, with established manufacturers in Xuzhou (Jiangsu), Changsha (Hunan), Liuzhou (Guangxi), Jining (Shandong) and Longyan (Fujian), and hundreds of assemblers of mini excavators, compactors and small equipment.

On the ground

Our teams, as close to the factories as possible.

Our machinery team checks all of this before the order: engine reception, origin of hydraulic components, ROPS and FOPS protective structures, technical file, manual in your language, parts catalog and lead times for wear parts. At the factory, we attend the operational tests (hydraulic cycles, travel, braking, safety devices), then carry out a pre-delivery inspection machine by machine: serial numbers, plates, leaks, welds, paint, accessories. We organize transport suited to each size, by roll-on/roll-off ship (RoRo), on flat rack or in conventional shipping, and source wear and replacement parts for your existing fleet.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Can you supply used machinery?

Our core business is new machinery. A used machine imported from a third country is treated in the EU as a machine placed on the market for the first time: it must meet current requirements, engine included. We review it case by case, with an on-site inspection (hours, wear, leaks).

Do you source wear parts for my branded machinery?

Yes, as compatible parts: teeth, tooth holders, blades, tracks, rollers, sprockets, filters, hydraulic parts. We start from your part numbers or a sample, check material and hardness, and never supply a copy bearing the manufacturer's brand.

How is large machinery shipped?

Self-propelled machines usually travel by roll-on/roll-off vessel (RoRo), out-of-gauge machines on flat racks or in breakbulk, small equipment and parts in containers. We choose the mode based on dimensions, port of arrival and lead time.

Who provides after-sales service?

Warranty, documentation, training and parts lead times are negotiated with the manufacturer before the order. For a distribution network, we help you build the initial parts stock.

What rules apply to these products?

The gap between them is considerable. In Europe, the machine must have a Stage V approved engine (Regulation (EU) 2016/1628), full CE marking and its guaranteed sound power level (Directive 2000/14/EC); the Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 applies from January 20, 2027. North America requires EPA Tier 4 Final engines. Many export models are designed first for less demanding markets: non-approved engine, cab without certified protective structure, untranslated manual.
