UNIC Cranes Europe dealer in Czech Republic recently utilised the UNIC URW-095 mini spider crane to install glazing to a private house. Over the course of two days, KMBs worked alongside their crane operator to install glass throughout an entire house. While glass installation is a routine task for KMB, this particular house featured a standout design element: an all-glass front façade.
