Hüffermann sets up new rental fleet with tower cranes from Liebherr

Hüffermann to take delivery of 70 Liebherr tower cranes over the course of 2021
The order includes cranes of various sizes; from the L1-32 and assorted K series cranes to the 370 EC-B 12 Fibre
Another major order is planned for 2022

Hüffermann Krandienst GmbH has purchased 70 Liebherr tower cranes in one go to set up its new rental fleet. A symbolic handover recently took place during a visit to Liebherr’s production facilities in Biberach.

The first cranes are already in service at Hüffermann Krandienst. A total of 70 new Liebherr tower cranes are set to be ready for work by the end of the year.

Another major order for Liebherr tower cranes has been indicated for 2022. Daniel Janssen, Managing Director at Hüffermann Krandienst GmbH, has had good results with Liebherr tower cranes in the past, “We have always been more than satisfied and already know that we’ll be upping the order to 250 cranes,” says Janssen.

The representatives from Hüffermann used the handover meeting in Biberach to discuss deliveries to date and to finalise the details of those still outstanding. It was also agreed that Liebherr would provide its key customer with training on the new cranes, including on the first fibre rope cranes in Hüffermann’s fleet.

Hüffermann offers a wide range of Liebherr cranes

The Wildeshausen-based Hüffermann Group is known throughout Europe for its modern fleet and its comprehensive services for crane and heavy haulage logistics. In addition to the new Liebherr tower cranes, the company’s rental fleet includes mobile construction cranes as well as mobile and crawler cranes from Liebherr. The Hüffermann Group also offers loader cranes and truck-mounted working platforms as well as heavy-duty assembly, transport engineering and glass installation services. The crane service providers Autodienst West in Frankfurt and Eisele AG – Crane & Engineering Group in Maintal also belong to the Group as does a freight forwarding company for heavy goods and special transports.

Greater confidence through new experience: Liebherr increases period of use of Fibre ropes for tower cranes
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.
