AMDB Security Pro Secures $3.1 Million Seed Round from Two American Private Investors to Support U.S. Expansion

Florida, USA - August 10, 2026 - AMDB Security Pro, a French engineering company behind the first made-in-France mechanical anti-theft system for excavators and mini-excavators, today announced the close of a $3.1 million seed funding round from two American private investors. The investment will accelerate the company's establishment in the United States, where it plans to set up a subsidiary, build strategic partnerships, and continue R&D into new equipment categories.

"Closing this round marks a defining step for AMDB Security Pro as we prepare our establishment in the United States," said Pascal Oltra, Co-founder of AMDB Security Pro. "This investment lets us build our U.S. operations, deepen our relationships with rental companies, insurers, and equipment manufacturers, and keep advancing our technology into new equipment categories."

Founded by Pascal Oltra and Kevin Kaarouche, AMDB Security Pro tackles equipment theft at its source. While GPS trackers help locate a stolen machine after the fact, AMDB's patented device works upstream: it physically blocks unauthorized ignition, stopping theft before the machine ever leaves the job site. Engineered for the harshest construction environments, the tamper-resistant device is purely mechanical, with no electronics involved turning prevention, not recovery, into the first line of defense.

Construction equipment theft is a major, costly problem in the United States. According to the National Equipment Register and the National Insurance Crime Bureau, it costs the U.S. industry between $300 million and $1 billion every year, with more than 11,000 reported thefts nearly 1,000 machines stolen per month. The average loss reaches roughly $30,000 per incident, and fewer than 25% of stolen machines are ever recovered. Against this backdrop, AMDB's approach stopping theft before it happens closes a gap that tracking and monitoring tools were never designed to close, and directly addresses what American rental companies and insurers are looking for as they face these recurring losses.

The funding round comes as AMDB Security Pro prepares to enter the world's largest construction equipment and rental market. The capital will finance the company's U.S. buildout, from opening a subsidiary and hiring its first local teams through to a deep commercial and operational structuring effort aimed at large-scale deployment across the American market by 2027. This milestone builds on a strong 2025, marked by the Gold Medal at the Concours Lepine for its universal anti-theft system.

As part of its international expansion, AMDB Security Pro will continue serving excavator and mini-excavator operators while extending its engineering approach to a broader range of equipment. The company's mission stays the same: give American construction firms, rental companies, and equipment owners a way to prevent theft, rather than simply respond to it after the fact.
