About Us
The beginnings
In this company, established in 1969, we build products well known and appreciated all over the world. It all began with the production of hydraulic power packs and spare parts for tool machines and from the beginning our goal has been to produce with the best technology and precision available on the market.
The turning point
In 1981 we entered the nursery business with the hydraulic hammer, first specific tool to remove a tree with its rootball. Making treasure of our long experience in mechanic and hydraulic systems.
Our first prototype of treedigger
In 1989 we designed and built our first prototype of treedigger. It was a revolution in the nursery f ield, because the treedigger can do the job of 20 people and this permits to increase the number of digged out trees, making better delivery timing and making lower the effort for workers. But the most important reached goal is that the trees have no problems after transplanting, because only with the blade of the treedigger is possible to make the root pruning, a work useful to enforce the root system of the tree.
International leader
In the 90’s Holmac has become a leading international company thanks to a wide range of tracked treediggers that vary mainly in the rootball cutting size, from 25 to 80 cm, from 25 to 100 cm and from 50 to 150 cm in diameter. Almost all the machines have a sideways cutting movement that allows plants in the narrowest rows to be extracted. All models are fitted with a patented system of track opening and forwarding, which allows plants of considerable size to be handled.
The current headquarters
Since 2002, the company has been located in a modern factory and in a strategic logistical position. Production uses high-tech machinery and highly specialised personnel to ensure maximum precision in the processing stages, and a modern assembly line allows timely deliveries. Accurate testing throughout the production chain makes Holmac machines more reliable over time and is the result of a company philosophy that has always been focused on quality.
