Chief operating officer Frank Bardonaro said: “A lifting company can only be as good as the tools it uses to complete the job. For years we have relied on Manitowoc, Grove and National Crane to deliver us cranes that offer superior quality and return on investment. We are especially enthusiastic about the Grove GRT8100 and NBT55L models. It’s clear that these cranes are designed and built to not only be tougher than their predecessors, but also reflect the needs of the current lifting market.”

The new National Crane NBT55L

In the past week of so Maxim has purchased 15 big Tadano Rough Terrain cranes and three big eight axle Liebherr All Terrain cranes as well as these 19 units from Grove and National Crane, with the momentum driven by increased demand from the petrochemical sector as it plays catch up, after several years of under investment.
