30+ Years of Precision — From Hy-Fit to SHIMIZU Manufacturing

The story, the standards, and the production capability behind every hydraulic part that leaves our factory.

OUR STORY

From Aftermarket Parts Maker to 1st-Tier Supplier for Leading OEMs in Thailand

SHIMIZU Manufacturing (Thailand) was founded in 1994 as Hy-Fit Manufacturing, producing hydraulic system components for the construction and machinery aftermarket. In 1995, the company entered a joint venture with SHIMIZU Manufacturing Co., Ltd. of Japan and was renamed SHIMIZU Manufacturing (Thailand). From 1995 to 1999 the company exported 100% of its output to SHIMIZU Japan, before beginning to expand its domestic customer base from 2000 onward. Today, SHIMIZU is a 1st-tier supplier to leading OEMs in Thailand, while continuing to export to Japanese customers.
