Fair and reliable – ESB Kranverleih purchases Liebherr LTM 1200-5.1 mobile crane

The Liebherr LTM 1200-5.1 mobile crane is the largest crane in the ESB Kranverleih fleet
It represents the largest investment by ESB Kranverleih since the company started trading
Fair advice and top service are the reasons for buying from Liebherr

ESB Kranverleih based in Mittelbiberach in southern Germany recently made the largest investment in the company's history: the purchase of the new Liebherr LTM 1200-5.1 mobile crane represents a major upwards expansion of the company's fleet. Fair advice and reliable service are some of the reasons why ESB relies exclusively on Liebherr cranes.

ESB Kranverleih Transport und Hebetechnik GmbH started trading in 1981. Today its fleet comprises eleven Liebherr mobile cranes and the workforce has increased to 14 employees. The company has plenty of orders for its mobile cranes from various segments, with prefabricated house assembly, steel fabrication, prefabricated component assembly, mechanical engineering, industrial buildings, machine relocations and special civil engineering projects among its main applications.

The rising demand from the market for a larger crane and full order books for its 100-tonne crane led to the decision to purchase an LTM 1200-5.1. The 200-tonne crane will be used for assembling prefabricated components and top-slewing cranes and also for moving machines and equipment in the upper load capacity range. The two Liebherr plants in Biberach are among its customers.

ESB Kranverleih relies on time-tested mobile cranes from Liebherr. "Liebherr provides the best service in the industry and the main factory is just around the corner from us. The very fair sales pitch and good advice we receive also mean that we will remain a Liebherr customer", says Karl Engeser, Managing Director at ESB Kranverleih.
