Inventing an industry
There was a time when compact equipment didn’t exist. In 1956, brothers Louis and Cyril Keller changed that with a light and maneuverable three-wheeled loader they built to clear manure from the upper story of a barn. What became the world’s first skid-steer loader launched a multi-billion dollar industry. Nearly seven decades later, Bobcat keeps breaking down barriers to productivity, uncovering new ways to do tough jobs in any environment and do them fast.
Expanding our lineup
Today, the Bobcat brand is changing the game again and welcoming new groundbreakers to the fold, including business owners, contractors and homeowners. In every case, we’re bringing decades of expertise and proven performance to the iconic orange and white Bobcat banner.
Engineering progress
Over the decades, we’ve engineered our equipment to be not only tough, but also as agile and responsive as the prairie animal our company was named for. That means beefing up power, capacity, and efficiency with each new model. And it means making work safer and smarter.
