Leading French crane rental company, Mediaco, has recently ordered a new Liebherr LG 1750 – a 750-tonne, 8-axle, lattice boom mobile crane. The company said the purchase is part of its development strategy to reinforce its position in the French heavy lift market and that the crane will be one of the largest and most powerful in France. Mediaco said the purchase will help its heavy lifting division, Mediaco Maxilift, conduct lifts of up to 600 tonnes, making it suitable for installing large wind turbines. The crane will be delivered in September this year.
