Japan's construction equipment industry has grown rapidly with the support of active demands in both Japan and overseas market during the high postwar economic growth. Shipment value of construction equipment has exceeded 2 trillion yen and we have become one of the main industries in Japan. At the same time, Japan has become the world's largest construction equipment manufacturing country.

With such growth of the industry and to aim at appropriate measures concerning the rapid growth of domestic and overseas issues and improvement of industry standing, the Japan Construction Equipment Manufacturers Association was established in 1990 from the Japan Society of Industrial Machinery Manufacturers. With "Contributing to society through harmony and progress" as the fundamental principle, we currently have 74 regular members, 40 construction equipment parts manufacturing companies and construction equipment related companies as supporting members, and the member companies account for nearly 97% of the total sales of the construction equipment industry.
