Ag heritage

Nearly nine decades of agricultural engine expertise

Perkins engines are built to last

Frank Perkins, the man whose name is behind all Perkins engines, founded the company back in 1932. But he didn't just make diesel engines - Frank was a farmer, with a 400-acre farm.

This unique combination meant he saw how much diesel engines could benefit the agricultural market, and farming hasn’t looked back since.

Engines have changed, but Perkins remains committed to its customers

Evolution of our engines

Over the years, engines have evolved hugely. From the introduction of electronic engines to new emissions requirements, engines are more complex than ever.

Expert support

But whichever Perkins engine you have, it was made to last. Our engineers design parts to fit your engine precisely, and we train our distribution network so their technicians can give you the expert support you need.
