Graeme Riley, CEO of UNIC Cranes Europe said: “We have been working closely with UNIC Furukawa in Japan to develop the latest UNIC Cranes range in response to customer demand. Complimenting the existing fleet these new additions maintain unrivalled performance and reliability while introducing increased flexibility and usability for a diverse range of applications”.

Customers can continue to lift with confidence with the familiar controls and reliability of the UNIC cranes range with the added versatility of an integrated hydraulic fly jib.”
The new UNIC URW-295-2, builds upon the proven features of the URW-295 and introduces four innovative attachments, enhancing its versatility for diverse lifting applications.
