100 Years of Caterpillar

Over a century, Caterpillar has grown with its customers to help build a better, more sustainable world. Building pipelines, roads, bridges, runways and seaports is vital to our modern infrastructure system. Since the beginning, Caterpillar products have helped support some of the world’s biggest infrastructure projects.

Customers rely on Caterpillar products to help them build countless miles of roads like the U.S. Interstate system to allow faster movement of people and products. They constructed the Panama Canal to improve the speed of goods and cargo in sea transport and help work on subsequent expansions. They built the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System under some of the harshest conditions to pave the way for progress. They built dams and bridges, including the U.S.’s Hoover Dam and Golden Gate Bridge, and the Three Gorges Dam in China – creating some of the greatest engineering marvels in the world. Caterpillar generator sets even helped power the Apollo 11 mission to the moon. Today, when customers choose Caterpillar products, services and solutions, they also gain 100 years of experience and expertise. Whether you are a customer, an employee, a dealer, a supplier or simply a fan, you are a part of Caterpillar’s 100-years-and-counting story.
