To develop better products and services for its customers worldwide, Poclain Hydraulics has established a world-class network of R&D centers in France, Italy, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia, India and the United States.

Our Slovak team recently celebrated Poclain's 20th anniversary in Slovakia. Our history in Slovakia began in 2003, when a very small team started to develop an innovative and competitive design for a heavy-duty axial piston pump. Over time, the subsidiary grew and expanded its design activities until it became a strategic R&D center for Poclain products: motors, pumps and valves. Today, our team in Trencin counts 22 employees with multidisciplinary skills ranging from project management, design and industrialization, data science and human resources.

To celebrate this milestone, Olivier Dion, Group Design, Industrialization & Projects Director came to visit the entire team. We have no doubt that the next 20 years will be filled with even more exciting projects for our team!
