Hydrema

Hydrema is a manufacturer of earth moving machines based in Støvring, Denmark, founded in 1959.

In 1971, a daughter company was established in Norway, followed by Sweden in 1979, the former West Germany in 1981, England in 1985 and France in 1988.

There are many countries like the United States, Australia and Poland, that import machines from the Hydrema factories in Denmark and from 1997 in Germany.

In 2004, Hydrema mine-clearing vehicle (MCV) was used by the Indian Army for 'proving' operations to clear personnel or anti-tank mines with up to 10 kg explosive weight.

[1] In 2006, Hydrema expanded into the defence industry through a counter purchasing deal with the Swedish Hägglunds, which is a part of BAE Systems.

Hydrema was to produce, mount and integrate 45 turrets for the Danish Army's new CV9035 Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
