Belgium rental company, Heli has moved into new premises, which consolidates all its operations and divisions in one location. The company split its operations, which includes rental, machine sales - including Snorkel and Bluelift - and logistics, after a period of rapid growth three years ago.

The new, 4 hectare site in Wetteren, immediately provides 50% more space than the combined footprint of the old sites - plus there is room for expansion in the future.

The workshop, parts department, personal equipment department and Heli's entire rental fleet moved in one weekend and construction continues on the office space.

The office staff will transfer to the Wetteren site in the New Year, Wim le Roy of Heli said, "Bringing all of our operations together on one site will be better for our customers, help us further grow our business and will help improve the unity of the Heli team.
