Shantui has emerged as the leading manufacturer of bulldozers worldwide. This multinational company, headquartered in Shandong, China, announced its status as the top producer of bulldozers, all under its proprietary brand. Historically, Shantui has been the leading bulldozer brand in China, but its aggressive growth and strong demand in the global market have solidified its position at the top.
In 2010, Shantui accounted for two-fifths of the global production of crawler-type dozers, surpassing more than 10,000 units. The total global production for that year was 24,600, with its closest competitor, Caterpillar, producing 6,400 units. These figures were compiled by Off-Highway Research, a prominent independent industry analysis firm.
“We are delighted to have independent confirmation of our achievements,” Richard Li, Vice President for International, expressed. “It’s rewarding to witness our investments yielding such significant returns, particularly against established competitors. Our strategy of combining performance with excellent value is proving successful on a global scale.”
Shantui is not merely a manufacturer of dozers; it is a formidable player in the manufacturing sector. It produces the majority of the components for its dozers, even providing parts to some of its competitors. Shantui’s comprehensive manufacturing approach ensures its customers receive better value and a superior quality product.
The range of Shantui’s dozers is broad, with models tailored for various terrains including swamps, deserts, highlands, power plants, forestry, and landfill sites.
