About Carraro
Founded in 1932, the Carraro Group began with Giovanni Carraro's vision to improve agricultural work, leading to the creation of his first seeding machine. This foundational mission to innovate and enhance the quality of life for farmers propelled the company's evolution, with the first Carraro tractor being produced in the 1950s. Under the entrepreneurial leadership of Mario Carraro, the company's focus sharpened, establishing a legacy of engineering excellence and a commitment to meeting the dynamic needs of the market.
Mario Carraro's key insight was to strategically shift the company's core business in 1973 to specialize in the heart of the vehicles: axles and transmissions. This pivotal decision transformed Carraro into a world-leading manufacturer of highly efficient power transmission systems, including gears, axles, and specialized tractors. The Group serves major global manufacturers in the agricultural and construction equipment sectors, offering integrated and technologically advanced solutions that combine mechanics, hydraulics, and electronics. Carraro's product lines are crucial for a wide range of machinery, from tractors and combine harvesters to backhoe loaders and forklifts.
With its headquarters in Campodarsego, Italy, Carraro has a robust global presence. The company's international expansion began in 1997 and now includes major production facilities in India, China, and Argentina, alongside its Italian operations. This "local for local" approach allows Carraro to adapt its advanced solutions to the specific needs of diverse markets, ensuring a strong and responsive presence across the globe.
