Liebherr’s technology has established itself firmly in the construction industry and in civil engineering. The company’s construction machinery program comprises complete tower crane, truck crane, hydraulic excavator, dumper truck, hydraulic rope excavator, wheeled loader, crawler tractor and loader, pipe-laying machine, concrete mixing plant and truck mixer model lines. Liebherr also supplies extensive families of product in many other sectors. For cargo handling there are ship, container and dockside cranes. In plant and equipment construction Liebherr is a supplier of machine tools, interlinked machine systems, aviation equipment and transport technology, and in the domestic appliances sector Liebherr offers a complete program of refrigerators and freezers.

To maintain the high quality standards with which its products have to comply, Liebherr attaches great importance to in-house control of key technologies. To avoid outsourcing core competences, major sub-assemblies also come from in-house development and production. They includes for example the entire driveline and control technology for construction machinery, including the electrics, electronics, transmission, hydraulics and diesel engine product groups. Another example are hydraulic rams and anti-friction bearings, which are increasingly used in products of other makes as well.
