Hunger Hydraulics USA FAQ

Hunger Hydraulics USA is a member of the Hunger-Group from Europe. IC-Fluid Power is a supplier, representative, and distributor of their custom hydraulic cylinders. However, the ties run even deeper than that. The previous president of IC-Fluid Power, Armin Hunger, is a part of the Hunger family, and founded IC-Fluid Power specifically to bring high-quality European hydraulic components to the US. The current president, Ben Hunger, is also a part of the Hunger family, Armin’s son. Nowadays, Hunger Hydraulics USA and IC-Fluid Power share an office building and a warehouse, meaning IC-Fluid Power has priority access to manufacturing capabilities, fast lead times, and quick communication.
