Getman Corporation At Getman Corporation, designing and building equipment for the underground mining industry is our exclusive focus.

Getman Corporation is a global supplier of mobile equipment, with over 70 years of experience in customer-focused solutions for the underground mining industry. Based in Southwest Michigan USA, Getman Corporation is a global supplier of mobile equipment to the mining industry, offering customer-focused solutions to underground mines. All Getman equipment is designed with extensive research and development and is supported by over 65 years of experience serving the underground mining industry. Through our network of distributors, we sell and support our vehicles on six continents, offering exceptional product solutions and world-class aftermarket support. We take pride in being the preferred supplier of underground production and production support equipment to miners globally by offering customer-specific, value-driven, and long-lasting solutions. Getman Corporation entered the mining industry in 1954 with a small motorized wheelbarrow called the Scoot-Crete. Manufactured by Getman Brother's Construction Company, the Scoot-Crete was known for transporting concrete in municipal construction works, ranging from parking ramps to road works, and most famously, to the construction of the Mackinac Bridge between 1954–1957. The Scoot-Crete gained recognition in construction applications throughout the U.S., leading a Colorado uranium miner to modify a Scoot-Crete for use in an underground mine. In this application, the Getman Scoot-Crete replaced the mule-drawn cart system found in trackless western mines. In its new application, the Scoot-Crete concept proved to be a simple and effective solution. During the remainder of the 1950s, Getman Brothers Construction focused on creating various adaptations of the Scoot-Crete, resulting in the development of one of the first trackless diesel-powered underground product lines. Following their successful entrance into underground mining, Getman's range of machines proliferated during the 1960s and 1970s, with numerous industry firsts, including the first rubber-tired drill Jumbo Carrier, the first Explosives Charger (ExC), and the first Mechanical Scaler. The A64 product line also was launched in the 1970s. The A64 series is the backbone of Getman's modern-day product offering, as well as one of the most prolific machines in underground hard rock mining. Since that time, Getman has delivered thousands of A64 products to hundreds of underground mines throughout the world. In 1980, expanding sales led Getman to relocate from its riverside factory in South Haven, Michigan to its current headquarters in Bangor, Michigan. The first unit from the Bangor facility was commissioned in late 1981. With an ever-expanding product line, sales continued to grow, and the Bangor facility saw multiple expansions and additions to its original layout. In 2013, continued growth led to the opening of Getman's second manufacturing facility in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Today, Getman is a leading supplier of production and production support equipment to the underground mining industry. With a focus on helping miners work safely and efficiently in their everyday roles, Getman is proud to have spent over six decades bringing high-quality, long-lasting solutions to underground mines worldwide.
