P&J Arcomet becomes Uperio USA

P&J Arcomet, a wholly-owned company of the Uperio Group, has changed its name to Uperio USA, effective December 8, 2021. All operations, office locations, and contact information around the USA remains intact.

According to Brian Rolston, president of Uperio USA, “This change will allow us to focus on our growth and expansion plans as part of an enormously strong organisation. Uperio is one of the worlds’ largest tower crane companies, and we’re proud to be a part of such a professional and capable group.”

According to Mr. Philippe Cohet, Uperio Group CEO, “Our name changes here in the USA more accurately reflects our global strategy in the North American market. As a group, we have a robust presence with far-reaching capabilities. Our valued customers in this region will more easily be able to tap into those capabilities to help them be more productive and competitive.”

Formed in 2005, P&J Arcomet was a joint venture between the Arcomet Group, now part of Uperio, and P&J Crane Systems, which started business in 2000. The company developed its original footprint from its Washington DC headquarters, then expanded in 2008 opening a facility in Dallas, Texas, followed by the opening of a Ringgold, Georgia location in 2018. In 2020, the Uperio Group completed the purchase of 100% interest in P&J Arcomet LLC.

Uperio says its customers in North America now have access to more than 100 years of experience selling and renting a full line of top-slewing and self-erecting cranes. Uperio USA is the exclusive distributor of Zoomlion Tower Cranes in North America, operating a fleet of over 100 cranes, and has 60 employees in 16 States. Uperio is also the manufacturer of the Arcomet line of self-erecting cranes and the Opti crane.
