Valtra History

Today’s Valtra tractors represent the culmination of two traditions: Finland’s Valmet and Sweden’s Volvo BM, itself an offshoot from Munktell. The roots of both Valtra and Volvo go back to Eskilstuna Mekaniska Werkstad, founded by Theofron Munktell in 1832.

From a very modest beginning we are proud to have grown into an internationally recognised brand. Valtra’s pedigree is based on hard work and perseverance plus a degree of originality and audacity.
