The purchase represents the first new Kato CR-200Ri to join a UK fleet. John Sutch Cranes, which celebrating its 25th year in business this year, also bought a 13t Kato City Crane from Rivertek in 2008.
Managing director John Sutch said: "We are delighted to receive the first new Kato CR-200Ri into the UK and we will continue to invest in the latest equipment to provide the most efficient solutions for our customers."
Sales director Mike Fitton said: "We used to run Kato cranes of all capacities and are thrilled to see them make a comeback as they offer many unique capabilities not available from other manufacturers."
