The largest crane on Réunion Island

When ordering the AC 500-8, INCANA included a whole list of accessories and the maximum level of equipment available, including a luffing jib, Superlift system, and the IC-1 Plus control system.

INCANA needs the powerful AC 500-8 for a large number of projects that include erecting wind turbines, building large infrastructure projects, lifting distillation columns at sugar mills, and work on the biggest roadbuilding project in Réunion: The La nouvelle route du littoral coast highway.

“The extremely friendly reception we got by the Demag team there was at least as impressive as the AC 500-8 itself,” said INCANA crane department manager Idriss Incana, who inspected the crane in Zweibrücken with two of his co-workers before it was shipped.

“I’ve known Thierry Incana for about 20 years now and really value his amiable way of interacting with people and doing things. And I know that the decision to purchase the AC 500-8 was not only a business decision stemming from the well-planned growth of INCANA, but also a result of the fact that we’ve worked together in person within the context of a relationship marked by complete trust,” said Jean-Marie Grossmann, Tadano and Demag France business leader.
