Austrian loader crane and aerial lift manufacturer Palfinger has opened its expanded service centre in Duisburg, Germany, which is now the company's second largest service location in the country after Ainring.
The facility includes a 1,300 square metre repair workshop, a 645 square metre workshop for installations and a wash bay. The site services the full product range including aerial work platforms, loader cranes and timber cranes.
Opening day at the new facility
The company plans to increase staffing from 40 to 60 and has relocated its platform division from Krefeld, adding 35 staff including development, service, purchasing, sales, and spare parts operations. Production was previously moved to Löbau in 2023.
Senior vice president Gerhard Sturm said: "This move aligns with our goal to double service revenue to €700 million by 2030."
