Hanchang president, S.T. Kim said: “The LR 11000 is the most modern crane in its class. In particular it is the best choice for jobs at restricted sites because, despite its high load capacities, it has a very compact design. We can use our cranes all over the world because Liebherr is everywhere for us. They build modern, high-performance cranes with high quality. And when we come to sell them, the value of its used cranes is higher than that of its competitors.”
