Tadano America Corp. is expanding its area of expertise. The company revealed the release of its new boom lift lineup. This addition is expected to help the company continue to grow.
Tadano, a manufacturer of lifting solutions, is bringing its skill to the United States and Canadian mobile elevating work platform (MEWP) markets with a new lineup of high-performance boom lifts. Building on the company’s reputation in the crane sector, this expansion introduces a full range of models engineered for superior stability, safety, and efficiency.
“Tadano’s growth in the Americas has been extraordinary over the last several years, and while our crane market share is very strong, we saw an opportunity to complement that success with additional product lines,” said Erik Elzinga, Tadano Americas vice president of AWP business development for Pan-America operations.
The MEWP lineup will include wheeled and crawler chassis configurations, designed to deliver maximum performance in diverse work environments. These machines provide maximum platform stability and versatility to improve safety and productivity on the jobsite.
“Tadano has a long history of aerial crawler work platform expertise in Japan,” said Elzinga. “The opportunity is to take our experience and apply it in the Americas.”
The introduction of its MEWP range to the U.S. and Canada is also an outcome of Tadano’s acquisitions of Nagano Industry Co., Ltd., a manufacturer of self-propelled crawler boom lifts previously available in Japan and Europe, and most recently, Manitex International.
The combination of Tadano’s lifting expertise and Nagano’s crawler boom technology has resulted in an extensive range of boom lifts with a traditional crawler chassis, purpose-built to address applications that require the sensitivity only crawlers can handle.
“Now, we are bringing both our in-house innovations and Nagano’s technology to the market in a strategic way to drive continued growth,” said Elzinga.
