The world over, Astra is synonymous with endurance and reliability. Neither African roads nor the most challenging desert conditions stop its vehicles which, with safety and optimum performance in mind, confirm the success of Italian technology globally.
The Company has more than 60 years experience in the design and production of vehicles destined to hard work in extreme climatic conditions. Astra builds equipment able to enter quarries and the most inaccessible mines, and move huge quantities of material like rocks or mud.
Founded in 1946, the firm is owned by Iveco since 1986. The product line includes mining and construction vehicles, rigid and articulated dumptrucks and special vehicles.
The company is also strongly committed to reducing the emission levels of its vehicles; and on the production side it seeks to optimize the use and collection of waste in a manner that ensures the maximum level of recycling and re-use possible.
