Al Askar takes delivery of 26 all-terrain cranes with lifting capacities between 50 and 110 tonnes.

Mohammed Al Askar, Owner of the Al Askar Group and Ibrahim Dewidar, Operations Manager visited together with Ajanthas Kumarathas Managing Director of Saudi Liebherr Co. the manufacturer's mobile and crawler cranes plant in Ehingen to place a huge order of used cranes in May 2024. Externally, the cranes look like new – freshly finished in brilliant white, as ordered by Al Askar. But it's not just the looks that are impressive - the inner values also leave nothing to be desired. Liebherr's experts have refurbished the cranes to meet all the customer’s specifications. “We trust Liebherr. We are proud to be able to add these devices to our fleet,” says Mohammed Al Askar and adds: “We can be sure that we will receive all the cranes from Liebherr in excellent condition and can get them to use immediately.”

 

The smallest of the 26 mobile cranes is an LTM 1050-3.1, the largest is an LTM 1110-5.1. As agreed with Al Askar, all the cranes will be fully refurbished in Germany before delivery to Saudi Arabia. Mohammed Al Askar explains: “These relatively new used cranes are equivalent to new cranes once they have been refurbished. Their performance data and technical features are up to date. We look forward to having all 26 LTM mobile cranes in our fleet by the end of the year.” Al Askar will use its cranes mainly for general industrial jobs.

 

I believe that Liebherr cranes are always a benefit for us as crane operators,” continues Mohammed Al Askar. “Liebherr has impressed us with its intelligent safety systems, the excellent quality of all its components and all its production technology. Finally, the value retention and durability of Liebherr mobile cranes is an important factor.” Thanks to these points and the professional refurbishment work carried out by the manufacturer, used Liebherr mobile cranes are a genuine alternative to new cranes. They are also attractive due to their short lead times and the fact that they require lower finance. Liebherr has the largest selection of used cranes in the world. With technical expertise and decades of experience, its repair specialists spruce up the cranes to the level required by the customer.

 

The Al Askar Group, with over 700 employees, specialises in haulage and heavy load work. The company's fleet incorporates around 90 cranes and over 350 trucks. In Saudi Arabia, the local subsidiary Saudi Liebherr Company Ltd provides Al Askar with support in the form of an experienced, reliable customer and general service team for everything relating to Liebherr products.
