Our company was established in 1958 by Kazuo Morooka (Former Chairman)
In Japan, at that time, in order to increase the rice and vegetable production, we were opening new arable land. To provide water for farming, digging wells and pipe installation work became the starting point of Morooka. Based on this type of work, we had many marsh land work and sometimes the construction machines sank into t
he muddy earth and got stuck, so movement in this type of soil was very difficult, which was a constant issue. At that point in the work, to make our work more easily, we developed our own light weight construction machinery. This was the beginning of our company to go into the manufacturing business. The machines we developed were, the pipe installation earth digging trencher and vehicle to move materials. Especially, light weight and able to travel in marsh land, we developed the “Rubber Crawler” and to better handle the operation a “HST drive system”. So in 1975, we started to manufacture the Rubber Crawler with HST system “trencher”, “bulldozer”, “off road carrier”. It is our basic management principle that we develop machines from the stand point of our customer needs.
