Japanese heavy lift and transportation specialist Denzai has announced the establishment of its European regional head office, Denzai Europe, located in Gdynia, Poland.

The company aims to strengthen its presence in the region with this strategic move.

The new office will be led by Ireneusz Kopka, the appointed director and country manager. Kopka brings over 20 years of experience in project logistics and heavy lift and previously worked for notable global crane manufacturers and logistics providers. He became part of the Denzai team in January 2025.

Kopka said: “Europe presents significant opportunities for specialised heavy lifting and transport solutions, particularly in the growing energy and power generation sectors. Our goal is to bring Denzai’s global expertise, engineering capabilities, and safety-driven approach to clients across the region.”

Denzai International Holdings director, CFO Mike Siah said: “I am looking forward to Denzai’s expansion into Europe.

“The region offers a strong project pipeline across energy, petrochemicals, and renewables where our engineering-led approach to heavy lift can deliver clear value. We look forward to partnering closely with European customers and supporting their complex projects.”

Denzai, known for its engineering-driven heavy lifting and transport services, operates with a fleet of advanced cranes and equipment. Founded in 1972 and based in Muroran, Hokkaido, Japan, the company employs over 1,300 people and maintains offices worldwide, including in countries such as Bangladesh, India, and the US.

The company has been actively involved in renewable energy projects, leveraging its expertise in installing, operating, and maintaining both onshore and offshore wind turbines.

In March 2026, Denzai has entered into a capital and business alliance agreement with leasing and financing businesses Mitsubishi HC Capital.
