The world needs resources such as coal, iron ore and lumber in order to grow and
thrive. The Resource Industries segment, led by Group President Steve Wunning,
makes it possible for our customers to mine and harvest these resources in a
profitable and sustainable way. The business units within Resource Industries
design, manufacture and market products from large track-type tractors and large
mining trucks, to underground mining loaders, to paving and forestry equipment,
to machinery components and electronics and control systems.
The acquisition of Bucyrus International, Inc. (Bucyrus), in 2011 expanded the mining
product portfolio into the broadest product line in the industry. Caterpillar’s Product
Development & Global Technology and Advanced Component & Systems Divisions
are also a part of Resource Industries. These two divisions include a global
workforce of over 10,000 people working in multiple technical centers and facilities
in the U.S., Mexico, Europe, China and India and product proving grounds in the
U.S. and China. Resource Industries is also home to the Caterpillar Production
System group, which is responsible for driving manufacturing excellence throughout
the company.
