Chief executive Luigi Maggioni said: “We are pleased to present the Raimondi T577 flat top tower crane to the global construction audience. We had planned to launch during Big5 Construct in Riyadh to allow our regional clients first-look at the specifications, as this crane is designed to support large infrastructure construction projects – specifically those in Saudi and the wider GCC. This is the largest Raimondi flat top to date, and we are working on releasing additional models with even greater lifting capacities. We will also expand the T Series by launching smaller sized models.”
