For Coates Hire the order is part of a growth strategy to meet strong rental demands across the east coast and to refresh its access fleet “Haulotte was able to offer products that meet our strategic and commercial needs. We were impressed with the level of service and support that they offered as well as the innovative features like Activ’Screen, which will make technical support even easier,” said Dan Goodfellow, category manager for Coates Hire.

Damien Gautier, Haulotte managing director of Asia, Pacific and Middle East region, added, “Australia is one of our fastest growing markets, and the local team is expanding to meet this new growth as well as the parts and services support expected by our customers.
