Their combination of crawler maneuverability telescoping boom versatility and 100 percent pick-and-carry capability is helping lifters increase efficiency on a wide variety of projects.

Petro-Sea Logistics a joint venture between Belgium’s Sea-Invest and Ivory Coast’s Petroci began buying Grove all-terrain cranes in 2016 and that trend continues in 2017 with the addition of a GMK5180-1. The company made the switch from another brand’s all-terrain range and hasn’t turned back thanks in part to the reliability of new Grove models and especially for the aftermarket service that Manitowoc provides the company.

Kolkata-based Indian real estate company PS Group is using three Potain MCT 85 topless cranes to help construct its much-anticipated residential project PS Panache.
