CLAAS has been developing and manufacturing balers for 95 years, 65 of which have been spent in Metz-Woippy. In 1996, the company unveiled its first round baler with a variable bale chamber developed in-house: the VARIANT 100 series. The name VARIANT has endured ever since – now in its fifth generation alongside the CEREX series, which was launched in 2025.
CLAAS is now celebrating the 30th anniversary of its variable round baler product range with two anniversary models and special financing for the 2027 financial and product year.
