Core offering

Eurosteel designs and manufactures attachments and quick-coupler systems for excavators and wheel loaders, including the CW and proprietary S-system quick couplers, Eurotilt tiltrotators, and a broad range of buckets (ditch cleaning, excavation, trapezoidal, tiltable), rippers, grabs, pallet forks, adapters, and tilting couplers. Products are brand-independent, custom-engineered to customer specifications, and built in-house at the company's Venlo production facility.

Product overview

Eurosteel is a manufacturer of attachments for excavators and wheel loaders, founded in 1985 and part of the Kinshofer Group since 2024. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio of products organized around two main categories: excavator attachments (quick couplers, tiltrotators, buckets, pallet forks, rippers, grabs, adapters, tilting couplers) and wheel loader attachments (quick couplers, buckets, forks, lift arms, adapters). Core products include proprietary Eurotilt tiltrotators (ET11, ET19) for excavators 2-25 tonnes, CW and S-system quick couplers, and various bucket types (ditch cleaning/slotenbakken, excavation/dieplepels, trapezoidal/taludbakken, tiltable/kantelbakken). The product line spans multiple size classes and includes specialized variants for different applications (rock/demolition, pipework, chain, adjustable wing configurations). Products are brand-independent and compatible with various machine brands and attachment types.
