Multicrane vice president sales and marketing Suwandi Hudiman said: “Multicrane is delighted to be representing Potain. The brand has built up a strong reputation in Indonesia and is known for high quality, reliable cranes that are easy to maintain and operate.”

“High-rise construction projects in major cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya have been fairly consistent over the past two years. Next year we expect to see more activity in the industrial construction sector for projects such as power plants, processing plants, and storage facilities. Potain cranes, especially the MC 310 and the MCT 205 offer strength, reliability and fast assembly which makes them suitable for a wide range of job sites.”

Potain tower crane sales director Marco Zucchet added: “Multicrane Perkasa is highly experienced and well known within the Indonesian crane market. The company has a great network with strong customer support credentials and we are looking forward to working with them.”
