Irish crane rental company Kavanagh Crane Hire has taken delivery of the first ever Demag AC 45 City crane in Ireland. According to Demag, part of the Tadano Group, Kavanagh has a history of being early adopters of Demag cranes. It said Kavanagh was also the first company in Ireland to use: an AC 250-1; an AC 220-5; and an AC 100-4L.

The crane was handed over to Kavanagh by Demag senior field engineer, Tony Mullin, and the regional sales manager for Demag Mobile Cranes at Tadano Demag, Lyle Sibbald. “’Kavanagh has always been a great supporter of Demag mobile cranes and we are delighted to deliver Ireland’s first Demag AC 45 City to them,” said Sibbald.
