The end of the year is the right time to reflect on the past 12 months. And that's exactly what the Parts Store team is doing. It's absolutely crazy what has happened in our online store for Hatz original parts since January. It's been an incredibly exciting time.

The store stories in Magaz!n will inform you about our promotions, new features and our team. In our Tips’n’Tricks, you'll also find many helpful instructions for maintaining your engines, such as how to change the air filter on the Hatz 1B engine. And last but not least, our “powered by Hatz” section features impressive machines that could not do their spectacular work without our drives. Just one example: The Grimme Cleanloader, a gigantic potato harvester.

In the past year, we have also extensively expanded and optimized the shopping experience in our store. The focus is on parts availability. And we didn’t goof around or hold back: In the past year, about 700 new original parts from Hatz were added to our online product range. We have integrated and expanded our merchandise shop. Now you can go to the Parts Store and directly buy a wide range of work and leisure wear as well as many useful gimmicks with the Hatz logo, so you'll always have the right style.

In the middle of 2022, we expanded our “catchment area.” Since then, customers in almost every European country have been able to order from our Parts Store. An English version of the website makes it easy for our international customers to find the right parts. In October, overnight express shipping was introduced. So your machines do not stand still for longer than necessary. On request, we can also deliver urgently needed parts directly to your job site. It couldn't be any more convenient.

The highlight of the year was bauma at the end of October. The world’s leading trade fair for construction machinery, with our first “public” appearance, was a unique experience for us. You can read about everything we experienced in Magdalena’s trade fair report or check out our story highlights on our Instagram channel. It was impressive how many machines had a Hatz heart.
