Logo development since 1892

The typical AMAZONE logo with the horse was first used and shown to the public in 1892. In the years and decades that followed, the logo continued to develop with a large number of revisions. In the year 2000, the logo was redefined and split into agricultural machinery (orange) and groundcare (green). In 2024, the colour scheme for groundcare and hoes was changed to match that of agricultural machinery, in order to strengthen the brand identity.
