Ashland Industries Inc.
Founded in 1953 in Ashland, WI as Buchli Enterprise, the company started out of demand for earth moving equipment. As technology improved, Buchli slowly focused most of its attention to pull-type scrapers – firmly solidifying its position as a leader in the agriculture and industrial earth moving market. We are a company of farmers, construction workers, fabricators, and innovators relentlessly searching for solutions to our customers needs. Solve for the customer first. Then produce scrapers of uncompromising quality while maximizing tractor productivity and loading efficiency. We don’t just listen to our customers, we work with them. In the field or on the job site, we witness first hand how our products are used and how to make them the best.

About us
As tractors continued to grow in size and horse power, so too did the scrapers pulled behind them. The consolidation of farm land also created a need for higher capacities and wider cuts. In 1970, Buchli fully transitioned to Ashland Industries and the company continued to innovate its product line to meet the demands of farms and contractors. Scraper capacities swelled to 15 cu. yds. and were engineered to be pulled in tandem.
Development continued over the next 20 years producing advanced dolly wheel, direct mount, and dump-style scrapers for multiple markets and unique customers.
Do More…The last 20 years has been a renaissance of sorts for Ashland Industries. The convergence of laser and GPS technologies in land leveling has brought about a surge in demand for Ashland scrapers and new water management regulations have steered farmers back into the one solution that can bring their land into compliance…the scraper.
Our motto is Do More. From maximizing the productive capabilities of our customers’, to providing uncompromising customer service. Every strategy and tactic is first passed through that mantra. If it doesn’t allow the you to Do More, it’s not a priority. The customer is our north star and they are guiding us towards exciting new opportunities and products.
