Our Company

HYDAC provides fluid power solutions to OEM’s, manufacturers and end users of a variety of heavy duty mobile and industrial equipment. These solutions increase the efficiency, longevity and safety of fluid power systems – even under extreme conditions.

Although the demands that industries place on machinery vary depending upon the application – construction and agricultural equipment; offshore; machine tools; pulp and paper industries; forging, mining; aviation; plastic injection molding machines – all types of equipment and systems share one thing in common – the need for improved performance in a cost-effective manner.

Our strategy is to anticipate the demands that will be placed on our products when they are applied in the industries we serve, rather than just react to customer demands. Through our ongoing testing and research, HYDAC is constantly and proactively looking to improve upon our current products and to place that same research and experience into our new product designs.

Many of our products satisfy ISO standards, as well as many other industry standards, certifications and benchmarks. However, the goal of our innovative product line is not just to meet these requirements – our aim is to exceed them.
