McConnel Ltd
From humble beginnings, the McConnel name has evolved over the years to become a pioneering British agricultural institution recognised around the world for innovation and quality in the manufacture of hedge and verge mowing machinery.
Today, more than 75 years since the world’s first tractor-mounted hedge cutter left the McConnel workshop, the company is justifiably proud of its status as the world’s largest producer of power arm reach mowers and a leader in its field.
Extensive Machinery line-up
McConnel machines can be found working the land in more than 35 countries and over the decades, the company has extended its range to include the most extensive and technologically advanced hedge and verge mowers, rotary mowers, flail mowers, cultivators, excavators and ground-care machinery available to the international market.
Innovation & technology
Innovation has been driving McConnel’s success since the company’s creation and technology has been harnessed to enable our industry-leading designers to deliver state-of-the-art solutions for customers all over the world.
Throughout McConnel’s history, considerable time and resource running into many millions of pounds has been invested in ensuring that the best technical and engineering expertise in the industry is employed in their design teams and is supported by the latest computer and software capability.
Best of British manufacturing
Sadly today, British manufacturing and engineering industries can claim few accolades and have long since lost status as world leaders.
McConnel is an exception. The company not only claims its place as the innovator of the first tractor-mounted hedge cutting machine, but also as the world’s current leading producer of hedge and verge mowing power arm technology.
Quality as Standard
Quality is integral to every aspect of the modern manufacturing process. McConnel has developed stringent standards covering all manufacturing, design and business systems in line with ISO9001. McConnel has also obtained the prestigious total management system BS2000.
With all parts built on site from raw materials and incorporation of a comprehensive in house and in process quality control system, it has been possible to introduce standards that exceed the industry benchmarks.
McConnel after sales support & contacts
McConnel’s approach to customer support is characteristically straightforward. As long as you own a McConnel machine, you are entitled to the company’s unrivalled after sales support which over the years has evolved into one of the best customer service operations in the industry. Whether it’s a general, specific, service or parts enquiry, McConnel’s After Care Support Division is geared to delivering a reliable and prompt response to customer needs.

McConnel’s design innovation and manufacturing excellence has been recognised over the years with an impressive array of industry and business awards.
