German rotary cutter manufacturer Rokla GmbH, which operates under the Rockwheel brand, announced its acquisition of Austrian crusher and screening bucket specialist Hartl Engineering & Marketing GmbH. The deal includes the use of the Hartl brand, inventory and intellectual property. The Hartl family’s Modular Solutions Division is not included in the deal.

The development will enable Rokla to expand its product range, company leadership reported. “The market for Hartl’s product offering has developed well in recent years and this acquisition promises to further strengthen Rokla’s position as a leading supplier of excavator attachments,” Robert Piasecki, managing partner, Rokla, said. “Rockwheel and Hartl products are particularly complimentary, making the rationale behind the deal even more compelling for customers.”

Hartl Engineering & Marketing GmbH was established in 2011.
