Our DNA
ACB+ is the essential partner manufacturer that, since 1963, has been equipping hydraulic excavators (from the 500 kg mini-excavator to the 100-ton excavator) and loaders. 95% of our products are designed and manufactured in France, in our plants, located in the Beaujolais and in the Val de Loire.
Our mission statement
Transforming hydraulic excavators, from the 500 kg mini excavator to the 100 ton excavator, and loaders into versatile and productive tool carriers.
Ensuring your productivity
Every day we are supporting you, to help improve your productivity.
To achieve this:
- We offer solutions to change your machines, hydraulic excavators and loaders into multi-function tool-holders: save time by changing a tool in an instant, and win more contracts by executing all the types of work site requested by your customers. With our offer of mechanical and hydraulic couplers and tools, enhance your performance and your productivity by having the right tool at the right time on your vehicle.
- We design our equipment to match the original kinematics and to respect the manufacturer’s load tables. Our new couplers provide greater day-to-day agility through the supplementary functions now available: inclination, orientation, tilt-rotator. You’ll go further in your finishing work and you’ll be able to optimise the time, equipment and workers needed on your sites.
- We pay particular attention to offering you reliable and durable products, in order to minimise machine down time. Our presence next to you is extended through a high degree of reactivity in the event of a problem. We provide real support. For proof, our customer support department delivers 85% of spare parts orders by D+1 for any order received before mid-day.
