Environment

Volvo Construction Equipment is different. The company's products are designed, built and supported in a different way. This difference comes from our 175-year engineering heritage. A heritage of brainstorming to the people who actually operate the machines. About how to make them safer, more comfortable or more productive. About the environment we all share. The result of this thinking lies in a growing range of machines and a global support network that helps you do more.
Not all products are available in all markets. Under our policy of continuous improvement, we reserve the right to change specifi cations and design without prior notice. The illustrations do not necessarily show the standard version of the machine.
