They can be used for various jobs such as loading, unloading, erection and placement of material at various project and construction sites such as industrial construction, refinery or petrochemical, railway or monorail, bridges or flyovers, power plants and in different industries such as chemical, power, fertilisers, cement, mining, CFS or ICD, fabrication, shipyards, defence, plywood, stone or granite, cable manufacturing and transmission towers.During the launch, Manoj Agarwal, CGM (HED), ACE, said, “The company is actively working out strategies to build market presence as it gears up for increased business opportunities that the current infrastructure space holds. With the new launch, ACE plans to consolidate its share of cranes equipment market in India and extend its reach to other developing markets globally.”
