All of us at Liebherr share the concern for the safety of the people in the affected regions as well as the worry about the humanitarian repercussions of the war. We hope for an immediate de-escalation and end to the war.
The Liebherr Group supports the sanctions imposed on Russia. We are currently implementing these extensive sanction measures. This will have an impact on Liebherr’s business in Russia. Since the situation is highly dynamic, it is too early to make concrete statements as to the extent of this impact. Therefore, we cannot conduct a final assessment at this point in time.
The Liebherr Group’s parent company is making donations to the Swiss Red Cross (SCR) and the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) to support both organizations’ effort to support the people in the war zone as well as refugees.

Liebherr is increasing the overall service life of its Fibre ropes from 14 to 16 years, with the decisive period of use rising to up to 12 years. This is based on multi-year ageing trials on test rigs and analyses of ropes already in field. The new ruling applies automatically to all new ropes and those already in the field. This step forms part of Liebherr's ongoing path towards establishing Fibre technology as the new standard in the tower crane market.
