PortaCo started operations over 35 years ago in Moorhead, Minnesota, USA as a manufacturer of hydraulic valves and manifolds. Since then it has grown into one of the leading producers of hydraulic power units for a number of industries as well as hydraulic tools and equipment used in railway track construction and maintenance.

PortaCo offers its worldwide customers a vast variety of standard proven high quality products, as well as products specifically customized to its customers’ needs. Our products are specifically characterized by their safe, ergonomic, reliable, and efficient design. A history of over 25,000 Power Units and 20,000 Railroad Tools demonstrate this exceptional performance to serve our customers. PortaCo also takes pride in its high level of customer service.

Due to the impressive and innovative railroad tool portfolio, the dedicated service to its customers and the committed employees PortaCo drew the attention of the Goldschmidt Group, a major player in the railway infrastructure industry.

We listen to our customers and develop products to fit their specific needs. Our knowledgeable staff quickly responds so that your requests, questions, or concerns are resolved to your complete satisfaction. We stock most tools, usually allowing us to ship within 24 hours upon receipt of order. Field staff can provide product demonstrations and training at no cost. Our products are proudly manufactured in the USA.
