1.1.1 About Antaeus Machinery
The name Antaeus” comes from the ancient Greek god of the earth. We use this name
because our company’s core proposition is to design, rent, sell, and service deep foundation
construction equipment.
Antaeus Foundation Equipment LLC, formed in June of 2016, is a deep foundation
construction equipment manufacturing company specializing in vibratory pile driver/extractors
and related products. We design and manufacture, rent, sell, and service deep foundation
equipment of all makes and sizes.
John L. White, the CEO, started his career in the deep foundation construction business in
1977 in Seattle At PACO (Pacific American Commercial Company). Fresh out of the US
Marines, John traveled the Western half of the US and Canada, servicing and leasing pile
driving equipment manufactured by MKT, Vulcan and Delmag.
John served as President of APE from 1990 until his departure in June of 2012. During this
time at APE, John received 40 patents related to pile driving and deep foundation machines.
John also set the world’s record for installing the largest pile. John built APE into the world’s
largest pile driving equipment manufacturing company and his inventions revolutionized the
industry. John sold his shares of APE in 2012.
John continued to invent pile driving machines and longed to return to inventing new pile
driving machines. John’s latest inventions are shocking the industry, including his new
“updrive” hydraulic power units and his multi-staged suppressor system.
In June of 2016 John returned to the deep foundation industry by launched Antaeus. His new
machines are quickly becoming the number one choice in pile driving equipment. Antaeus has
a mission. Our goal is to buy, manufacture, rent, sell, lease and service state of the art pile
driving machines for the purpose of providing a competitive edge to our customers.
We are gods of pile driving, we are Antaeus Foundation Equipment.
