The most popular category is SANY excavators, which range from compact mini excavators (ideal for small construction sites and urban projects) to heavy-duty 20–36 ton excavators designed for road construction, quarrying, and large-scale projects. These machines are known for their fuel efficiency, strong hydraulic systems, and low maintenance costs, making them a favorite among Kenyan contractors.

Beyond excavators, SANY also supplies wheel loaders and motor graders for earthmoving and roadworks, ensuring smooth site preparation and leveling. The company is equally strong in the lifting segment, offering truck cranes, crawler cranes, and rough-terrain cranes that meet the demands of logistics, construction, and energy projects across the country.

sany SY365H & SY335C


SY – This stands for SANY (brand prefix used across all their machines).

  • 365 / 335 – This number represents the approximate operating weight of the machine in deci-tonnes (or 1/10th of a tonne).

    • SY365H ≈ 36.5-ton excavator

    • SY335C ≈ 33.5-ton excavator

    H / C – The letter usually denotes series or generation of the machine:

    • H = Newer, upgraded generation with improved hydraulics, better fuel efficiency, and emission compliance.

    • C = Slightly older or mid-generation model, still widely used and reliable.

So when you see SANY SY365H, you are looking at a heavy-duty, 36.5-ton crawler excavator from the latest “H series,” great for big earthworks, mining, or road projects.

SANY SY335C is a slightly lighter, 33.5-ton “C series” excavator — still powerful but may have fewer advanced features than the H series (and is usually cheaper).

SANY vs XCMG vs Zoomlion vs Komatsu

An excavator in use at a construction site with a person operating it. Workers and vehicles in the background. Red soil and a partly cloudy sky.

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) matters more than just purchase price. If machines will be heavily used, or transported over rough roads, or working in harsh conditions, durability, parts and service network are vital.

SANY

Chinese, founded 1989; strong global presence in 150+ countries.

XCMG

Chinese, older (1943) and very diversified; many overseas distributors, R&D & factories abroad.

Zoomlion

Chinese (1992),

Komatsu

Japanese, long established (since ~1921)


Fuel Efficiency / Operational Costs

Premium brands tend to invest more in fuel-saving features, emissions compliance etc. These can save money over time, especially with fuel prices high or regulated.
