The Zoomlion T8030-25 flat top

Arcomet has worked closely with Zoomlion on the development of the T8030-25 since 2014. The crane is an optimised Jost design, while P&J founder Peter Jehle is said to have further developed the mechanical and electrical systems to meet the latest European and North American requirements.

Zoomlion’s overseas sales director Owen Yang said: “P&J has an unmatched reputation for tower crane expertise in North America and provides Zoomlion the sales, rental and service platform befitting our high standards for quality and safety. The team at P&J has a lot of experience and is a market leader, not to mention what they have contributed to the Peiner’s prominence on the continent. The introduction of the T8030-25 model will provide a better choice for customers.”

Jehle added: “We spent quite a lot of time getting to know Zoomlion from their manufacturing standards, workmanship and technology. We got involved from the ground up and this is one of the best-built cranes I have ever been associated with. This will deliver our customers an exceptional crane at an exceptional value. It simply blows away the competition.”
