Liebherr-Canada Ltd. announces sale of four heavy lift cranes to GUAY

Liebherr-Canada Ltd. is proud to announce the sale of four Liebherr cranes to GUAY, marking a significant milestone in its ongoing commitment to delivering world class lifting solutions. The purchase includes two LR 1700-1.0 crawler cranes and two LG 1800-1.0 mobile cranes.

GUAY, a leader in both operated and non‑operated crane rentals and home to the largest crane fleet in Canada, will add these machines to its existing lineup of 38 Liebherr cranes.

These machines represent some of the most advanced heavy lift technologies available today. The LR 1700-1.0 combines the mobility and transport advantages of a 600 ton class crawler crane with the performance characteristics of larger units, while the LG 1800-1.0 delivers exceptional lifting capability with the flexibility of a mobile crane platform. Together, they provide unmatched versatility for demanding applications such as wind turbine installation and repair, especially in remote areas.

“We rely on equipment that performs in the field, and Liebherr has proven time and again that we can count on them,” said Guillaume Gagnon, Executive Vice President at GUAY. “These new cranes provide the power and precision our projects demand, strengthening our capabilities and reinforcing our commitment to partnering with manufacturers who share our standards for quality and service.”

The decision to invest in these models reflects a broader industry trend: companies prioritizing equipment that offers both cutting edge engineering and dependable after sales support. Liebherr’s reputation for durability, service responsiveness, and innovation continues to make it a preferred choice for organizations that cannot afford downtime.

With a focus on long term customer success, Liebherr-Canada Ltd. remains committed to providing not only exceptional machinery but also the expertise and support needed to keep projects moving safely and efficiently.
