Bennetts managing director Edward Seager said: "We are making investments in cranes that meet the demands of modern construction sites. The Liebherr 620 HC-L combines high lifting capacity with a compact design and innovative technology, which means it can be used efficiently on even the most demanding inner city construction sites."
