September 6, 2010 | Comments (0)
The first of the new Valla 25E Light electric pick & carry cranes to be sold in the USA will go to work on the World Trade Centre site in lower Manhattan, New York.
The Italian based manufacturer says that the cranes have been ordered by Benson Industries. A leading curtain wall supply and installation company. Which is installing the complex curtain walling system designed to clad both the Freedom Tower and Tower 4 of The World Trade Centre (WTC) development in New York City.
The Valla 25E range was launched January, 2010, with curtain walling applications in mind, building on the success of the Valla 2.0E in this type of application, following pioneering work by Peter Hird and later CLE, particularly in the USA.
Antonio Valla, owner and chief executive of Valla said: "Having just opened our North American office in Los Angeles this year we're proud that one of our first sales allows Valla to play a part in the rebirth of the World Trade Center project"
The 25 weighs just 2,000kgs yet offers a pick and carry capacity with its US load chart of up to 2.25 tons. Its low weight allows it to be easily transported between building floors, while the speed and rope capacity of its winch make it ideally suited for curtain walling functions.
