MB Crusher

What MB Crusher does

MB Crusher (legal entity MB S.p.a) is an Italian industrial manufacturer founded in 2001 in Fara Vicentino, Italy, that designs and produces attachments for heavy construction equipment. The company pioneered the world's first patented multi-functional jaw crusher bucket in 2001 and currently claims over 90% of the world market for crusher buckets. Its portfolio spans bucket crushers, screening buckets, padding/shafts screener buckets, drum cutters, sorting grapples, and demolition pulverizers, all engineered to mount on standard excavators, backhoe loaders, skid steers, and loaders to enable on-site crushing, screening, milling, demolition, and material handling without separate power sources or stationary crushing infrastructure. The product line ranges from the compact MB-C50 (under one ton, for 11,000 lb+ excavators) to the BF150.10, marketed as the largest bucket crusher in the world, paired with excavators exceeding 154,000 lb.

Key technical differentiators include Hardox steel wear components for durability, a patented MB-HDS interchangeable shaft system allowing one-person on-site shaft changes in minutes, automated shock-absorbing hydraulics, a patented direct drive twin motor system for drum cutters, and 40% noise reduction on the latest shafts screener generation enabling urban deployments. The company operates from a 17,000 square meter headquarters and production facility in Italy, supported by 9 branch offices across 5 continents and a dealer network of 950+ locations distributing to 150+ countries, with 24/7 worldwide sales and after-sales support. Cumulative unit sales exceed 20,000 crusher buckets, and the company has introduced new product lines at a steady cadence, most recently the MB-G series sorting grapples in 2021 and a new Demolition Pulverizers line in 2025.

The business model is hardware unit sales of attachments, priced per unit on a quote basis and distributed through a hybrid channel of direct sales, 9 company branch offices, and 950+ third-party dealers. Customer segments are horizontal and span construction and roadwork contractors, demolition companies, mining and quarry operators, tunneling and underground construction, foundries/metal processing, and forestry/agricultural operations, with documented case studies across India, the Middle East, Europe, the Americas, and Oceania. Reported customer outcomes include payback periods under 12 months, up to 60% reduction in crushing time when screening buckets are deployed, and 160+ cubic yards per hour production for the flagship BF150.10. The company is privately held, founder-controlled, with no disclosed external funding rounds and a wholly-owned US subsidiary, MB Crusher America, Inc.
