INTRODUCTION
OUR FOCUS IS….
THE OPERATOR, because operators and their co-workers deserve safer work sites
OUR PURPOSE....
Transforming the world’s excavators into highly productive, safe and user-friendly tool carriers.
OUR VALUES….
PIONEERING, we are continually pushing in new directions. We are building a reputation as the industry
innovators through constantly looking for ways to make excavator operators’ lives better. And we look to new
opportunities in new markets, reaching customers that others don’t.
COMMITTED – we are committed to our customers, our people, our community and New Zealand. We are
committed to the cause of simple, user-centric design and we are committed to safety, without compromise.
COLLABORATIVE – we maximize the value we add to our customers’ business by working in active,
collaborative partnerships. We are onside: we take time to listen, we encourage honest dialogue, we look for
opportunities on their behalf, we think proactively as well as responsively.
COURAGEOUS – we are bold and intrepid in our quest for earth-moving innovation. We do not turn back at
the first hurdle. We are determined (the earth wasn’t moved in a day!) Our attitude is robust and our product
testing rigorous. We honor the Kiwi pioneering spirit and are proud to uphold it.
FAMILY – we believe people need to be treated as they are family. We look to build long-term relationships
both internally and externally through an honest, down-to-earth approach. We believe business success is
crucial – but not at the expense of people.
OUR MISSION….
CREATING HUMAN ATTACHMENTS
A business that builds stronger, more enduring human relationships
A business that creates uniquely user-centric products
The Wedgelock Quick Coupler was originally developed by Graham Calvert at Waikanae Engineering, NZ, in 1987.
The company and its reputation have since grown into a global leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of
excavator attachments.
Over the years Wedgelock has developed a complete range of excavator attachments to cater for machines from one
tonne to 100 tonne. Spearheading the range is the I-Lock Coupler.
Changes in safety standards and a continuous commitment to product improvement has resulted in the development
of the I-Lock Coupler, a world first in coupler safety. The I-Lock Coupler incorporates the unique patented I-Lock Safety
Knuckle, a differentiated safety feature that is first on and last off, eliminating the high risk of dropping an attachment
during change over.
