Working in swampy or flood-prone environments requires more than standard construction equipment. You need a machine that delivers dependable performance, keeps your crew safe, and stays productive even in the softest ground conditions. Wetland Equipment specializes in custom-engineered amphibious excavators, and we proudly offer complete solutions for Hyundai machines. Our Hyundai amphibious excavators are purpose-built to deliver maximum mobility, stability, and efficiency across wetlands, marshes, and other aquatic environments.
A Hyundai amphibious excavator is a standard Hyundai crawler excavator that has been modified with a specialized undercarriage system designed to float and travel across soft, saturated, or shallow-water surfaces. These machines are fitted with sealed pontoons and heavy-duty tracks that distribute weight evenly and prevent the excavator from sinking. This setup allows contractors to tackle jobs in areas that would be inaccessible or unsafe with traditional wheeled or track equipment.
Hyundai’s excavators already offer excellent digging power, hydraulic control, and fuel efficiency. By adding Wetland Equipment’s amphibious undercarriage, the result is a versatile, high-performing machine that can operate in environments like:
Hyundai is a globally respected brand in the construction industry, known for building durable and efficient excavators with user-friendly features. Operators appreciate Hyundai's spacious cabs, easy-to-use control systems, and powerful hydraulic responses. When enhanced with Wetland Equipment’s amphibious solutions, Hyundai excavators become even more valuable, capable of doing work in remote and environmentally sensitive locations.
These machines offer:
Whether you already own a Hyundai excavator or plan to purchase a new one, Wetland Equipment can supply a complete amphibious system that matches your project goals and equipment size.
We can build amphibious undercarriages for a wide range of Hyundai crawler models, including:
Hyundai HX220L – A highly popular 22-ton class machine that delivers solid performance in mid-size dredging and restoration projects.
Hyundai HX260AL – Ideal for heavy-duty tasks with powerful digging and lifting capacities.
Hyundai HX300AL – A reliable workhorse with high productivity in tougher environments.
Hyundai R210LC-9 and R220LC-9 – Efficient models that pair well with mid-size pontoons for marshland and river work.
Each undercarriage is engineered to accommodate the unique weight distribution and performance characteristics of the specific Hyundai model. If you’re unsure which size is best for your application, our team is happy to evaluate your project specs and recommend the right match.
At the heart of our Hyundai amphibious excavators is a custom-built undercarriage designed to deliver both floatation and traction. Our pontoons are crafted from marine-grade steel, fully welded, and internally reinforced to provide long-term strength without compromising buoyancy.
Key undercarriage features include:
This level of engineering allows the excavator to travel across deep mud, shallow water, and floating vegetation with minimal ground pressure and reduced risk of getting stuck.

Working in a marsh, bog, or tidal flat feels different the moment your boots hit the ground, and the difference only grows once heavy iron rolls in. Navigating wetland terrains asks for equal parts planning, respect for the ecosystem, and the right machine.
Wetland Equipment dredges deeper into this intriguing topic and explores the possibilities, limitations, and the perfect solution for aquatic construction: amphibious excavators.
Water work rewards precision and punishes guesswork. Soft soils, sneaky currents, and fragile shorelines can turn a simple task into a stalled project if the wrong machine rolls in. The fix is not more iron but the right iron, tuned to the water in front of you.
