At KUNDEL, we’re proud to be part of that story. Our cranes, trench boxes, and equipment are built right here in the U.S.A., by a team that cares deeply about safety, performance, and innovation. Every weld and every design detail reflects the dedication of American manufacturing at its best.

We’re grateful for our customers who choose American-made solutions, and we’re even more grateful for the people behind them—the crews, contractors, and tradesmen who keep building.

Happy Labor Day from all of us at KUNDEL.
