Crushing it: our hire team aren't afraid of hard work

Holcim (New Zealand) Ltd is a leading supplier of cement, aggregates and ready mixed concrete in New Zealand. 

​

They are also very busy. Their quarry and shingle crushing plant at Fernhill, Hastings operates all year round.

So when plant maintenance was required late last year, our hire team was called upon to work through the quieter holiday period in order to get the job done quickly, and with minimal disruption.

Working in shifts over a two week period, our LTM1055 crane crews lift heavy replacement parts (ranging 500 to 5,000 kg) into place. These included new blades for the crushing units.

Heavy lifts, time pressure and challenging conditions - it’s just another day at the office.
