<div class="ce-paragraph cdx-block ce-paragraph--left">Yoshimoto Matsuda, President of Precision Machinery & Robot Company, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd., commented: “Kawasaki has always been dedicated to hydraulic innovation, consistently delivering application-specific solutions through robust collaboration with our OEM engineering teams. This planned profound collaboration with Bosch Rexroth significantly broadens our offering into advanced digital and electrified solutions, meeting the rapidly evolving demands of our customers and expanding the value we deliver to our customers in precision hydraulics. Our complementary strengths can enable us to deliver integrated, intelligent, and inherently safer solutions that were previously unattainable, particularly within critical segments like excavators, which account for about half of the construction equipment market. Furthermore, as one of the companies most engaged in the realization of a hydrogen society, we are pleased to be able to deepen our dialogue with Bosch Rexroth on hydrogen solutions.”</div>
