About Eichler

Big enough to trust, small enough to care

Servicing Mannum, The Murraylands, and greater South Australia for over 50 years.

About

Eichler Earthmovers is a trusted regional civil infrastructure company, delivering high-quality projects across land development, local government, and authority sectors throughout South Australia.

Over recent years, Eichler has grown its capability and client base, strengthening its position as a reliable partner for complex civil construction works. While land development remains a core part of the business, expanded involvement in council and infrastructure projects has created a more balanced, resilient, and future-focused operation.

Our integrated delivery model combining civil construction, concrete supply and materials management enables us to deliver practical, efficient outcomes with greater programme certainty. Backed by continued investment in leadership, systems, and governance, we confidently manage multiple concurrent projects while maintaining strong commercial performance.

At the heart of Eichler is a commitment to doing things properly. We prioritise safety, accountability, and long-term sustainability, supported by a skilled workforce, experienced project teams with strong site leadership.

Our Community & Region

Now operating in our sixth decade, Eichler remains deeply connected to the Murray lands not just as a place we work, but as a community we are proud to be part of.

We take great pride in supporting members of our local community, providing leadership and training to help them develop into some of the most capable and valued employees within our business.

We are committed to supporting the people who work with us, live, build, and invest in this region. Alongside our larger infrastructure and civil projects, we continue to work closely with local homeowners, holiday property owners, and builders, helping bring projects to life with the same level of care and professionalism we apply across all our work.

This connection to our region shapes how we operate. We understand the local landscape, conditions, and expectations and we take pride in contributing to the growth, liveability, and long-term sustainability of the Murraylands.

Looking Ahead

With a diversified workload, strong foundations, and a clear focus on sustainable growth, Eichler is well positioned for the future while remaining firmly grounded in the relationships and regional values that have defined the business for decades.

Celebrating 50 years in 2020

Eichler proudly celebrates its 50th year in business. Incorporated since 1970, its inception was in the fifties, where the founder Cec Eichler realised an opportunity for Earthmoving after the famous 1956 flood. The flood presented a need for rebuilding the destroyed levy banks, and the rest is “history”. 50 years on, Eichler is stronger than ever, our client book is growing by the day, and we continue to be just as passionate about supporting local as we are supporting South Australia and beyond.
