Dear Valued Customer;

We are proud to announce the recent merger between Pro-Line Buckets & Grapples of Houston, TX. and Hawco Manufacturing Company LLC of Slaughter, LA. This union will form the largest Clamshell Bucket & Grapple manufacturer in North America. The new company will be called Anvil Attachments.

Anvil Attachments will continue to provide parts, service & engineering of new units under the Pro-Line & Hawco brand names. In addition, we will continue to provide those same services for the Anvil, Owen, Yaun, Williams, and Drott product lines. These products will include cable, hydraulic, and electro-hydraulic operated units.

What does this mean to you as a customer? Better Service from the initial contact till delivery and beyond. In need of parts, extra manuals, or repair services? These are all part of the Service after the Sale Commitment. Better Selection from a broad line of products that can handle the toughest of jobs. Better Quality that is ISO 9001 Certified for process and design. And most importantly, Better Value. Any company can sell based on price. However, it takes a company like Anvil Attachments to sell a product that adds value to your bottom line year after year.

Anvil Attachments has manufacturing & engineering experience that dates back to 1906. With companies that promise the world today and are gone tomorrow, there is one thing you can count on. Anvil will continue to provide quality products at a fair price, just like we have been doing for almost a century.

Anvil Attachments now is part of a greater cause to satisfy the customers demand for Quality and Innovation. We have several product alliances that help to fulfill those needs. These include Hydraulic Equilibrium Cranes by Seram for material handling operations and material separators & lifting devices by Steinert. These product lines follow a long tradition of Quality & Service and can be packaged for your one stop shopping.

After the first of the year, we will be coming on line with a new website at www.AnvilAttachments.com. Until such time you can see all the latest on marketing, trade shows, maintenance tips, product discounts & specials, etc. at www.hawcomfg.com or www.pro-line.com.

Anvil Attachments would like to thank you for your patronage over the years and hope that we can continue to service your needs in the future.

Sincerely,
