Aichi TZ 15

Willenbrock Concept continues to manage the Aichi truck mount sales operation in Europe (through its existing network of dealers) and will now be assisted by Wumag’s own sales operation.

Aichi will also become responsible for sales of Wumag products in the Asia Pacific area.

The first tangilbe result of the new agreement will be on show at Germany’s Hannover Messe next month. A truck mounted Aichi TZ15 A will be shown on Wumag’s stand (No J05/1 in the outdoor area).

The first jointly produced product, a 22 metre platform with 1000 kilogrammes of lift capacity is scheduled for a launch in the third quarter of this year.
