JLG

JLG Industries began in 1969 when founder John L. Grove, after witnessing a fatal scaffolding accident, set out to create a safer solution for accessing work at height. With a crew of about 20 workers in McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania, the company built and sold its first aerial work platform in 1970, pioneering the access industry. Today JLG offers boom lifts, scissor lifts, telehandlers, low level access equipment, vertical lifts and stock pickers, along with fleet management technology such as ClearSky SmartFleet and training through JLG University. The company is headquartered in McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania, and has been part of Oshkosh Corporation since 2006.

JLG Industries began in 1969 because company founder John L. Grove had an idea that sparked an industry: to create a solution for accessing work at height. With a crew of just 20 workers at a small metal fabrication shop in McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania, he conceptualized, built and sold the first JLG aerial work platform in 1970, founding the company and pioneering the access industry. In 1976 JLG's first scissor lift was introduced. In 1981 the company introduced oscillating axles as an option for boom and scissor lifts, improving maneuverability, and in 1988 it patented the "Extend-A-Reach" feature. In 1991 JLG launched the 150HAX, described as the industry's first 150 ft boom; in 1996 it introduced the first mobile vertical lift; and in 1999 it unveiled a fuel-cell powered boom lift and acquired Gradall, adding telescopic material handlers to its product line. In the 2000s, JLG introduced the first 60-ft electric boom lift in 2000, unveiled SkyWelder and other Workstation in the Sky accessories in 2001, acquired Lull and SkyTrak in 2003 to expand its telehandler product line, was acquired by Oshkosh Truck Corporation (now Oshkosh Corporation) in 2006, and introduced the first iteration of ClearSky, a connected asset-management tool, in 2009. Today JLG delivers solutions that enhance performance, boost productivity, maximize uptime and support progress, with safety, productivity, technology and lifecycle solutions at the core.

A focus on safety, productivity, technology and lifecycle solutions is at the core of everything we do.
