From the Shop Floor to the Data Layer
Forty years of earning trust,
through unparalleled service.
It started with repair. Then came a bigger idea.
What began on the shop floor grew into something much bigger — a global approach to repair, recovery, and the intelligence behind every component.
Built on the assembly line
In 1982, a team of engineers in Michigan founded American Hydrostatics Manufacturing Inc. — a company built to manufacture hydraulic drives for GM, Ford, and Chrysler.
When the industry changed, we changed first
Through the 1980s and 1990s, the automotive industry began a fundamental shift from hydraulic systems to electrical. AH Group adapted before the market forced the issue.
New leadership. A new era for AH.
Around 2008–09, Dhawal Zatakia and Dhrumil (Drew) Parikh started the next chapter for AH — building the present-day AH Group with the acquisition of an American hydraulic distribution business.
The moment everything changed.
The industry was built around a simple question: Can this component be repaired?
