Already a claimed market leader in Sweden, with a very satisfied customer base and a strong economic position, SMP Parts has a successful 30-year history within the construction equipment industry, designing products that boost performance and efficiency.

All SMP Parts’ quick couplers and buckets are said to be durable and made with superior quality craftsmanship and expert welding. The majority are made from Hardox 450 and Weldox 700, said to guarantee strength and reliability. HardLock, SMP’s own patented double locking quick coupler, and the SMP tiltrotator are trusted brands with a strong reputation.

“SMP has had a fantastic response to our products on other European markets including the neighbouring countries of Holland and Germany. France is an interesting new market for us, we are confident that we can offer a hands on approach to French customers and really listen to their needs in order to give them the ideal solution,” says Börje Blank, site manager at SMP Parts.

All SMP Parts’ development and manufacturing is carried out at the company’s headquarters and factory in Ilsbo, Sweden. The ambitious firm’s goal is to be at the forefront of product development and quality within its market sector.
