Innovation-Driven Since 1985

Hyundai was founded in 1985 with a vision that heavy equipment should be as intelligent as the projects it builds. Over four decades, we have invested consistently in R&D — from early hydraulic proportional control systems to today's IoT fleet monitoring, adaptive hydraulics, and hybrid-electric powertrains.

Today, with 5,200 employees and 580,000 m² of ISO 9001:2015 certified production capacity, we deliver over 12,000 smart excavators annually. Each unit ships with embedded telemetry, connecting your fleet to a predictive maintenance cloud that reduces unplanned downtime by up to 62%.

We do not sell machines — we sell measurable productivity gains, fuel savings data, and fleet intelligence. That is why forward-thinking procurement teams across mining, infrastructure, and energy sectors choose Hyundai.
