The move also strengthens research and development (R&D) efforts, with a focus on automation, electrification, and hybrid technology. Additionally, while MECALAC has a strong presence in Europe, FAYAT’s global reach will facilitate market expansion in North America, Asia, and beyond, creating new growth opportunities and improving customer support networks worldwide.

Sustainability remains a key priority, and the combined strengths of both companies will accelerate the development of low-emission and electric-powered construction equipment, driving greener solutions for the industry.

Both FAYAT and MECALAC remain committed to ensuring a seamless transition, assuring customers and partners of uninterrupted operations throughout the process. The deal is expected to close by mid-2025, during which both companies will prioritize continuity in operations and customer support, align strategies to maximize synergies between their product lines, and leverage their combined expertise to drive innovation and sustainability in construction equipment.
