doosan

Doosan is a South Korean multinational conglomerate headquartered in Seoul. The group operates in construction equipment, power generation and energy services, desalination and water treatment, and information technology services. Its best-known units include Doosan Infracore, a maker of heavy construction machinery; Doosan Bobcat, which markets compact equipment under the Bobcat brand; Doosan Enerbility, a provider of large-scale power plants and related services; and Doosan Fuel Cell, a producer of stationary fuel cell systems. Doosan Corporation serves as a major holding and services entity within the group, with operations that span regional markets and various industries. The company maintains a global presence with manufacturing, engineering, and service facilities in Asia, the Americas, and Europe.

Historically, Doosan traces its roots to the late 19th or early 20th century and developed into a major South Korean chaebol that expanded from textiles and resources into heavy industries and construction. In the 2000s and 2010s, Doosan undertook restructurings that separated and reorganized its businesses into independently managed subsidiaries while retaining the Doosan name for branding and global coordination. A notable milestone was the 2007 acquisition of Bobcat Company from Ingersoll Rand, creating the Doosan Bobcat brand for compact equipment. Since then, Doosan has pursued international projects in power generation, water treatment, and industrial services.

As a global group, Doosan emphasizes engineering, manufacturing, and services across multiple regions, contributing to infrastructure development, energy supply, and environmental solutions.
