About Komatsu
Komatsu has engaged in the mining equipment business since its foundation in 1921. In the 1990s the Company expanded by acquiring selected mining equipment manufacturing and distribution businesses operating in major mining regions. Today, Komatsu's annual revenue of 450 billion yen from mining equipment business is generated by surface miningequipment only, as the Company's portfolio does not include equipment for underground mining. Further, the Company's product lineup does not include super large-sized loading equipment for surface mining.
