In 2015 respectively 2017 DÜCHTING took over the suction dredger branch of Arthur Habermann GmbH & CO. KG. This includes the suction dredger product line as well as the Heavy duty slurry pump line “KBPL”.
Since then DÜCHTING develops and manufactures suction dredgers in various sizes, as well as the necessary equipment. The suction dredger range is rounded off by numerous services.

The first Habermann suction dredger was produced in 1957 in the form of a pontoon built around a dredging pump. The experience obtained from the construction and operation of our suction dredgers account for the high level of performance of our products and enable us to set new standards in the field of suction dredger technologies.
Particular emphasis was placed on the transfer of knowledge. It is possible to fall back on the entire know-how of Habermann, including drawings, spare parts lists and circuit diagrams.

Habermann has been committed to the development and production of technically advanced suction dredgers for decades. DÜCHTING will keep the proven product quality under a new name and our engineering expertise will further more advance the suction dredger technology. The suction dredgers are continuously being developed in terms of efficiency, economic success and ease of maintenance.

Current and future customers benefit from the international DÜCHTING network. Partners in over 50 countries are now successively trained in the Suction Dredger Technology to ensure future installation- and maintenance-service, as well as simplified communication with the engineering specialists at the German headquarters.
