BORN IN THE AUSTRIAN ALPS
At home where machines reach their limits.
HETTEC is based in Grossarl, in the heart
of the Austrian Alps. Here, alpine earthmoving,
forestry operations and ski resorts come together.
Steep slopes, rock, mud, snow and ice are part
of our everyday environment.
Our roots in alpine earthmoving go back to 1959.
Long before we began developing traction solutions,
our family operated heavy machinery in demanding terrain.
That experience continues to shape everything
we develop – down to the smallest detail.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
FIRST THE PROBLEM.
THEN THE PRODUCT.
We don't build unnecessary gadgets.
We engineer heavy-duty solutions for real challenges.
HETTEC was born from a specific problem in the field.
To this day, practical needs and the experience of
machine operators are the starting point for our developments.
Because the best ideas often come not from behind
a desk, but directly from the field.
WHAT MATTERS TO OUR CUSTOMERS
MORE OPERATING HOURS.
MORE POSSIBILITIES.
Our goal is to help machines operate as safely,
efficiently and reliably as possible,
even in the toughest conditions.
More traction. Less downtime. More productive operating
hours – and the ability to tackle jobs that were
previously difficult to accomplish.
Because what matters isn't just what we change on a machine.
It's what that machine can do as a result.
