Lifting equipment manufacturer Tadano has continued to diversify its portfolio with the acquisition of IHI Transport Machinery’s transportation systems unit.
The business is resposible for making jib climbing cranes, port and large offshore cranes, wind energy cranes and bulk handling systems.
“Tower and port cranes are new products for our group, and they give Tadano the ability to develop deeper relationships with our customers and better serve their lifting needs,” said Toshiaki Ujiie, president, ceo and representative director of Tadano. “Additionally, the ring lift cranes offer many synergies with our lattice boom crawler cranes manufactured by Tadano in Germany, and we anticipate these cranes will supplement our offshore wind power equipment needs.”
