tractor with vibrator hp360 pendulum in olive grove

Our company has been manufacturing and selling agricultural machinery for 25 years.

This is how we got here

The field of agricultural machinery has always been a family affair. It all started in 1935, when our great-grandfather Antonio Santillana opened the doors of his own forge, “Hermanos Santillana”, in Villanueva de los Infantes. Since then, our family has always been connected to the manufacture of machinery.

The last generation of the Santillana brothers joined the company in 2000. Since then, we have brought innovation to the agricultural machinery market.
