Hiab and its parent Cargotec, says that the acquisition will be a key building block in its aim to come the market leader for loader cranes. The Effer range will significantly boost Hiab’s large crane range, particularly over 100 tonne/metres where Effer is a leading player. The initial plan is for Effer to continue to operate as a standalone division of Hiab, maintaining the Effer brand and its dealer network.
Hiab president Roland Sundén said: "I am happy to welcome Effer to the Hiab family. This acquisition is a bold step in line with our growth strategy to be the global leader in on-road load handling and in particular in loader cranes, the industry that Hiab founded nearly 75 years ago."
Effer chief executive Lorenzo Cipriani added: "Through its size and global scale, Hiab offers the most optimal opportunities for continued growth for Effer and I am delighted that Effer is becoming part of an organisation with an equally proud past, passion for quality and reliability, and drive for innovation."
