With renewed interest in electric luffers in cities such as New York, and the growth of the US tower crane market, Jaso decided to enter the US market to bring its low profile hammerheads and luffers with a partner that has extensive experience in this market.
Jaso has produced over 14,000 tower cranes since its inception in 1965 and its cranes are currently working in more than 70 countries. Jaso has developed larger tower cranes (luffer and hammerhead) over the past five to ten years to meet the needs of the US, Australia, and other markets.
CTS and its management have worked in the crane industry for over 40 years and have a service network with offices in Virginia, Pennsylvania, and California. It also opens branch offices as needed. CTS has its central distribution warehouse in Southern Virginia to handle US spare parts sales.
The primary cranes available in the US include: J4010, J300, J360, J415, J420, J560, J600, and in luffers the J280PA, and J450PA. However, Jaso plans to offer its complete line should a customer request a smaller crane. The cranes delivered to the US market so far have been the J4010, J300, and J560, and the Spanish manufacturer will unveil a new addition to its US line at ConExpo.
Jaso and CTS offer features such as: local parts supply, US based service technicians, easily maintained cranes, cranes designed for the US market, a unique low profile hammerhead, hydraulic and electric luffing tower cranes.
