We are RÜKO

Since 1997 RÜKO GmbH Baumaschinen has stood for competent and cooperative partnership with the construction industry in Germany and abroad. The core of our business activity is used construction machine trade and rental of asphalt equipment as well as special machines with operators.

Our continuously expanding headquarters in Malsch serve our regional and international customers worldwide.

Sustainable and organic growth has shaped the development of the last 20 years. Our current team of over 30 employees work with a lot of heart, great personal commitment and a clear quality oriented mindset.

With the takeover of the Icelandic Hýsi-Merkúr hf, we have had an additional base since 2012. As dealer for Liebherr, Putzmeister and Yanmar in Reykjavik, another 20 employees look after our customers in the far North.

History

1997

RÜKO GmbH was founded in Karlsruhe, Germany in 1997. Online trade in used construction machinery, which was very innovative at the time, provided the young company with rapid but solid growth.

2005

After moving in 2005 to Malsch and the related investments in our modern office building with a professionally equipped workshop hall, rental of construction machinery has been set up as a second pillar of RÜKO GmbH increasingly.

The following years were characterized by strong growth in rental and sale. Accompanying other projects in construction and logistics were planned and implemented.

The storage capacity at Daimlerstrasse was gradually expanded to now 10,000 m².

2012

The Icelandic construction machinery dealer Hýsi-Merkúr was taken over as a second branch, during the financial crisis there. In the meantime, the local authorised dealer Liebherr and Putzmeister with their 20 employees were number 1 in many product areas.

2015

A large workshop expansion, completed in July 2015, increased the available workshop capacity and was thoroughly designed for efficient and ergonomic working.

By setting up a separate crane warehouse with an additional 5,000 m² of storage space, storage capacity was significantly increased.

2016

Massive investments were made in the further expansion of the feeder fleet. The area of operation was expanded to include all of Germany including drivers.

2017

RÜKO celebrated its 20th anniversary!

2020

Further expansions of the storage and workshop capacity are planned, and the office has reached its capacity limit after several renovations.

2022

The new branch opens in Fürth. Customers in southeastern Germany can therefore be better served.

2023

Expansion of the site area by 10,000 square meters.
