Founded in 2004 in Ankara, Galen Group established itself as a trusted manufacturer of buckets and attachments for construction machinery, building a reputation for engineering quality, operational reliability, and long-term customer partnerships across Turkey and international markets.

Building on two decades of heavy equipment expertise, the Group initiated an extensive R&D program in 2021 to enter the aerial work platform (AWP) sector — and in 2025, that vision became a reality.

Serial production of scissor lifts and vertical mast lifts officially commenced at a dedicated 5,000 m² manufacturing facility in Akyurt, Ankara, purpose-built to European industrial and safety standards.
