At CTM Imports, we are proud to partner with world-leading agricultural machinery manufacturers who share our commitment to innovation, quality, and practical solutions for modern farming. In this edition of our Meet the Manufacturer series, we're taking a closer look at ELHO, a Finnish family-owned company with more than five decades of experience designing and manufacturing premium agricultural equipment.


A Legacy of Innovation


ELHO's story began in 1968 when founder Arne Löfvik started manufacturing remote-control systems for forage harvesters alongside his work selling agricultural machinery. What started as a small side business soon evolved into the development and production of ELHO-branded machinery, setting the foundation for one of Finland's most respected agricultural equipment manufacturers.


Today, ELHO exports its products to more than 40 countries worldwide while remaining proudly owned by the founding family. Despite its international success, every ELHO machine is still manufactured at the company's factory in Bennäs, Finland, ensuring the highest standards of quality, durability, and performance.


Specialists in Forage and Field Solutions


Rather than trying to be everything to everyone, ELHO has built its reputation through specialisation. The company focuses on solutions for forage harvesting and feeding, stone picking, mulching, and crop management equipment, allowing it to develop machinery that delivers exceptional results in demanding farming conditions.


Over the years, ELHO has become known for producing innovative machines that improve efficiency, reduce operating costs, and help farmers maximise productivity. Their product range includes disc mowers, mower conditioners, tedders, swathers, forage harvesters, bale wrappers, feeders, mulchers, and the industry-renowned Scorpio rock pickers.


Built for Real Farming Conditions


What sets ELHO apart is its practical approach to innovation. Every machine is designed with the end user in mind, focusing on reliability, ease of use, and long-term value. Whether it's improving forage quality, reducing machinery wear, or increasing daily productivity, ELHO products are engineered to solve real challenges faced by farmers.


The company's philosophy, "Always Ahead," reflects its commitment to continuously developing machinery that helps farmers work smarter, more efficiently, and with greater confidence in the field.
