          “We are extremely excited about this strategic acquisition which provides us with in-house production capabilities with an ISO9001:2008 compliant equipment facility.” said Bob Vevoda, President and CEO of Crane 1. “MCC, along with our other partners will support our field operations with quoting, engineering and supply of new crane equipment solutions. This is in line with the company’s strategic intent to grow our market share and penetrate new geographic markets.”

Clemens Crane & Service Co., Inc. is an ISO 9001:2008 compliant, which further demonstrates their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction.

This is Crane 1’s third strategic acquisition since Pfingsten became the majority shareholder in October 2015.

Crane 1 currently offers a comprehensive portfolio of products and services including, inspections, maintenance, repair, design and, installation of new and refurbished overhead cranes and parts.
