Backhoe Loader Range
Backhoe Loader Range
Ever since JCB was founded by Joseph Cyril Bamford in a small garage in Staffordshire in 1945, innovation has driven our machines and our thinking. Of course we’ve grown since then but innovation remains at the heart of everything we do.
At more than 70 years of age, JCB’s iconic backhoe loader is as fresh and innovative today as when it was first conceived. Since the invention of the backhoe by JCB in 1953, we have continued to innovate, pushing the boundaries and providing real solutions to customer needs.
The world’s first… and still the best.
Throughout the intervening years, JCB has continued to improve on this basic concept by using innovative thinking and advanced engineering principles. In the process, many of our innovations have become industry-standard features. Like four-wheel drive, for example, as well as extending dippers, torque converter drive, powershift transmissions, all-wheel steer, sideshift chassis, powerslide, and skid steer. As a direct result of our innovative thinking and pioneering spirit, our backhoe loader range has led the world in terms of both features and sales. Today, we’re the biggest-selling backhoe manufacturer on the planet, and have been for decades.
An innovative future.
We recognise that a large part of our success is down to the fact that we listen to what our customers want. And we’ll be continuing this trend, always striving to build the most productive, dependable and efficient machines that technology will allow. In an increasingly tough market, we’re already attaching particular importance to versatility, residuals and fuel efficiency, all of which you’ll find in abundance on this latest range of backhoe loaders.
