22 scissors for Cramer

German rental company Cramer Arbeitsbühnen has taken 22 new scissor lifts from Imer.

The order includes the 33ft /890mm wide M 10090 A and 40ft/1.2 metres wide IM 12122 AC slab electric scissor lifts with working heights of 12 and 14 metres, along with the 13ft IM 4080 and the 16ft IM 5080 micro scissors with working heights of 5.8 and 6.9 metres respectively. All models have an indoor and outdoor rating.
Five of the new machines were delivered earlier this month with further units scheduled for delivery by the end of the year.

Cramer managing director Jan Schumacher said: “After it became somewhat quiet around Imer in recent years, we are pleased that with Bernhard Kahn and Reinhard Sebulke, two experienced industry experts are continuing the Imer business in Germany, and we can continue to rely on competent contacts in business development and aftersales.” See: Kahn joins Imer

Imer business development manager Bernhard Kahn added: “I know the bar is high to become a supplier to Cramer, and even higher to remain one. We are therefore particularly proud of this collaboration. It shows that our products, processes and service quality convince at the highest level.”

Cramer is based in Hagen, to the south of Dortmund and was founded in 1962 by Peter Cramer as a timber transporter. The company shifted to tree care in 1970 and acquired a number of work platforms to assist with the work. A rental business sideline soon emerged and in 1977, the company formally opened its aerial lift rental business, which included under bridge inspection platforms. Telehandlers were added in 2002, as a second generation joined the company in the form of Till Cramer, followed a couple of years later by daughter Annekathrin Schumacher-Cramer and her husband Jan Schumacher who took over the management of the rental division. By 2010 the fleet had grown to 750 units, including spider cranes, so the tree business was dropped.

The company now employs 115 people with a fleet of 1,600 platforms, telehandlers, and cranes.
