The company has delivered its first THP/SL modular trailers, featuring a new hydraulic widening system, to ALE’s Australian business — and appointed Mark Spratling at MAS Lifting Solutions as sales and service contact.

Stefan Fuchs, chief executive at Goldhofer, said: "Australia is currently moving full steam ahead with the energy transition, and it is critical for us to be able to service this growth market as effectively as possible. With our new adjustable-width modules and dedicated vehicles for transporting wind power equipment, we are certainly very well equipped.

"And now, thanks to Mark Spratling and his team at MAS Lifting Solutions, we are stronger on the ground than ever before. Mark Spratling has over 35 years of experience on the crane market and operates an all-round 24/7 service. The scope includes servicing, maintenance and repairs and also plant hire."

Mark Spratling said: "Goldhofer’s new THP/SL modular trailers with the widening system are a boon to the heavy haulage industry in Australia; with hydraulic width adjustment, the new THP/SL split modules can be used at maximum axle load on public highways in all six states."
