About HMF
HMF is a Danish manufacturer of truck loader cranes that has specialized since 1952 in the development of compact and user-friendly cranes. From a craft business founded in 1945, an international crane manufacturer has emerged; production takes place at the headquarters of Hojbjerg Maskinfabrik A/S in Hojbjerg, Denmark. The portfolio comprises loader cranes in four lifting capacity classes from 3 to 95 metre tonnes, including grab cranes for bulk material, cranes for towing and recovery services, cranes for recycling applications, and light cranes for urban operations. The designs are made of high-strength steel with double surface treatment and internal hose routing for use under all weather and terrain conditions. The cranes are sold, serviced and installed with qualified partners in more than 34 countries. For the German-speaking market, HMF Ladekrane & Hydraulik GmbH in Bietigheim-Bissingen operates as a sales and service company, offering maintenance, installation, radio remote control retrofits, technical support and spare parts enquiries.
