Alimak Group co-develops tower crane elevators together with Manitowoc

Alimak Group (Alimak), the vertical access solution company, has signed an agreement with US based capital goods manufacturer Manitowoc Company Inc. (Manitowoc) regarding joint development and production of specialised internal tower crane elevators. The agreement covers co-development and distribution of tower crane elevators. Alimak will supply its standardised external operator elevators adapted to fit the Manitowoc range of cranes that will be offered in both Alimak´s and Manitowoc´s respective global sales and distribution networks. In addition, Alimak has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Manitowoc regarding an internal tower crane elevator, attached within the crane´s mast, which will be exclusively sold and distributed by Manitowoc. The new tower crane elevator solutions will meet stringent health and safety regulations in Europe, including the latest as laid out in France, stating that motorized access must be available for operators climbing 60 meters or more to the tower crane cab, and from 30 meters in the new regulation taking effect in 2017. “We are very excited about the new agreement with Manitowoc regarding tower crane elevators. Increased health and safety requirements on vertical access solutions are one of the global trends that we see in both mature and emerging markets.
