In the heart of the Vicenza area—where construction means precision and managing tight spaces—the partnership between Munaretto and Eurocomach has deep roots. It is a decade-long collaboration born under the sign of Italian “tailor-made” quality, which is now evolving to meet a landmark challenge: labor shortages and the need for automation. We spoke with Mauro Munaretto, head of the namesake company, to understand how technology is reshaping work on the ground.

For Munaretto, choosing Eurocomach was a strategic decision. In a market dominated by global giants, the brand’s Italian identity

Eurocomach is an Italian brand tailored exactly to the needs of our market. The product is designed and developed for us: you can see it in the zero-tail swing machines and the flexibility in customization. If a customer wants a machine in a specific color, Eurocomach answers: ‘It can be done’.

Technology as a Selling Tool: Rental as a Test Drive

Mauro Munaretto has a clear vision regarding technical quality: never skimp on performance, because a machine that works well is the best possible advertisement. An example? The variable displacement pump on the small 14SR.

We have always focused on the highest-performing machines, even in our rental fleet. If you give a customer an entry-level machine that is jerky and lacks power, the brand’s image suffers. If instead you offer a product that works perfectly, the customer returns and buys. Our 14SR fits through 80 cm doors and features a variable displacement pump that makes all the difference: once the operator uses it, they notice it immediately.

The Triple Boom: Evolution Toward the “Construction Site Robot”

One of the key strengths discussed with Munaretto is the geometry of the machines, specifically the triple boom, available across the entire range, from 1.9 to 10 tons.

The excavator is becoming the construction site robot. It once served only for digging, but today it is a tool carrier: grapples, hammers, mulchers. At a time when labor is scarce across Europe, the machine must relieve humans of heavy work and multiply production. The triple boom is like a human hand: it allows you to work in difficult positions with surgical precision.

Zero Tail: Moving Through Italy’s “Tight and Narrow” Spaces

The Italian operating environment consists of historic centers and confined spaces. In this context, the Zero Tail design is a necessity that must, however, coexist with visibility.

We don’t work in the desert or in Dubai; we are always in cramped environments. Zero tail swing is a huge advantage. What we appreciate about Eurocomach is that, despite current technical complexities, the operator still has real visibility from the cab. You don’t need cameras to see where you are: you can do it with your own eyes.
