The crane was provided by Kobelco NZ subsidiary, TRT

Robert Carden, Technical Director, TRT, explains that despite the obvious disruptions due to COVID-19, his organisation has remained focussed on the Kobelco crane product and is expanding the coverage and representation for the range, with the most recent development the appointment of a sub distribution arrangement with New South Wales based Baden Davis Crane Connection Pty Ltd.

Kobelco is the first in the industry to introduce an Auto Idle Stop or AIS. This also reduces fuel consumption as it promotes engine shut off automatically when the machine is idle. But they have also added a manual stop without the need to turn the key, handy when you are waiting for the next lift, trailer or breaking down the machine, says Hand.

The brand has been a household name for many construction companies for a number of years and explains why TRT has targeted their product to sell in Oceania. The success has been linear for the company since they began in the year of 1930 with their first domestic excavator. The company’s dedication to driving enviro-friendly solutions means that it is an attractive prospect to countries who are conscious of CO2 gas emissions.  

Carden concludes, “We continue to build a strong team, better customer representation and are focussed on developing and enhancing our product knowledge, and we are in this for the long haul.  The Kobelco product is reliable and the technology is advancing rapidly. The appointment of The Crane Connection to represent Kobelco in NSW and ACT is another very positive initiative. Many customers will know the experience and value their team brings to the Kobelco value proposition, alongside TRT and the product reputation.”
