This milestone reinforces the company’s strategic presence in the Korean market and strengthens its commitment to delivering cutting-edge hydraulic filtration solutions tailored to local needs.
A strategic hub for hydraulic filtration
UFI Filters Hydraulics entered the Korean market in 2017 with a dedicated sales office, building strong partnerships with leading manufacturers, including Hyundai Construction Equipment (HCE).
The new Gimpo facility marks a further step in this journey, ensuring faster response times, improved logistics, and enhanced customization for Korean customers.
Advanced technology and localized production
Spanning 1,000 square meters, the Gimpo plant is exclusively dedicated to manufacturing hydraulic filters and elements for the Korean market.
Equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including a pressure drop test bench suitable for high flow rates, the facility meets the growing demand for reliable hydraulic filtration solutions in construction and heavy machinery applications.
UFI Filters Hydraulics: a trusted partner for Hyundai Construction Equipment
UFI Filters Hydraulics has been selected by Hyundai Construction Equipment to supply two specialized air breather models for excavators and wheel loaders.
These components feature a check valve and a custom depressurization button, ensuring minimal pressure drop and reducing hydraulic pump fatigue.

With over 30 years of expertise in hydraulic filtration, UFI Filters Hydraulics has established itself as a key supplier to Hyundai Construction Equipment, providing a complete range of pilot and return line filters.
This partnership further consolidates UFI’s reputation as a reliable manufacturer in the construction equipment sector.
