RAIMONDI Cranes, a leading Italian manufacturer of tower cranes, has solidified its position in the GCC having secured key contracts in two of the largest markets in the region.

In Saudi Arabia, the crane manufacturer last month marked the sale of 70 machines which are deployed in a variety of jobsites across different provinces of the kingdom. The machines are supporting projects in a multitude of sectors, including healthcare, hospitality, residential, education, and critical infrastructure development.

"The tower crane sector is experiencing a surge of demand in Saudi Arabia, fuelled by the economic diversification efforts outlined in Vision 2030. The kingdom, positioned as a hub for construction innovation and growth, is a valuable market with advanced planning," says Wael Hasan, General Manager, Raimondi Middle East.

"This newest milestone is a great moment for us. We're looking at the next several years in Saudi Arabia as very favourable for the heavy machinery segment," he adds.

Raimondi's portfolio in Saudi Arabia includes a range of models designed to cater to various client needs and project requirements.

"Among the most popular models, the Raimondi MRT159 and MRT294 present excellent lifting capacities, versatility, and ease of installation," states Hasan, noting that the company's current product portfolio includes both luffing jib and flat-top tower cranes with maximum lifting capacities ranging between 4 tonnes to 20 tonnes.
