Halloween’s almost here and it’s time to get carving.

We recognize the important role we can play in encouraging the next generation of innovative and skilled STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, mathematics) professionals. Mentoring in the classroom, job shadowing, factory tours, or mentoring robotics teams are just some of the outreach Komatsu employees are involved in to work with students and encourage kids of all genders and backgrounds to participate in a variety of programs and activities.

Nothing says fall like carving pumpkins, and we’ve provided some templates below so you can showcase a favorite Komatsu machine from the construction, forestry, material handling or mining industry.
