With the new facility in place, Steelwrist has the capacity to continue its growth journey in North America and fortify its position in the region.
The inauguration event was attended by U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal, executives from the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), dealers, customers, and the complete Steelwrist team in North America. Senator Blumenthal, along with Steelwrist CEO Stefan Stockhaus, conducted the official ribbon cutting ceremony, reflecting strong support and enthusiasm within the community. “This inauguration represents a significant step forward for Steelwrist in North America, and with the new facility, we can continue our exceptional growth trajectory and even better serve our customers and dealers in the region. It was a pleasure to host Senator Richard Blumenthal and explain the efficiency improvement potential that our products can bring to the US construction industry,” says Stefan Stockhaus, Steelwrist CEO.
Steelwrist entered the North American market at ConExpo in 2017, establishing its first location in Berlin, Connecticut. The new headquarters in Newington, just five minutes from the original site, is more than five times larger, underscoring Steelwrist’s rapid growth and commitment to the region. The new facility in Newington not only symbolises Steelwrist’s success but also its future potential. With increased capacity and improved infrastructure, Steelwrist feels it is well positioned to continue leading innovation in the tiltrotator market and supporting the needs of its North American dealers and customers. As excavator contractors seek to increase the efficiency and versatility of their investments, the penetration of tiltrotators is growing rapidly in the region. In recent years, Steelwrist has experienced strong growth, with tiltrotator sales increasing at a high speed.
“I am very excited to have inaugurated our new headquarters in Newington which marks a new chapter in Steelwrist’s support to the North America market. We have an exceptional team in place where every single one goes the extra mile for our customers. Combining this with our new facility, I look forward to continued success,” says Richard Aulin, Steelwrist VP Region Americas.
