HIAB loader cranes will now be sold and serviced across the U.S. via the nationwide network of MGX Equipment Services. MGX now represents the HIAB brand across 13 states with sales, service, and parts support.
Keith Poff, Vice President and General Manager of U.S. distribution for MGX Equipment Services, said the Hiab range would sit well alongside the Company’s existing range of industry-leading industrial products.
“We are excited to add the HIAB range of loader cranes to our offering as it represents the gold standard in loader cranes. We look forward to presenting these cranes to customers and delivering value to their businesses.”
HIAB offers a broad portfolio of loader cranes, allowing customers to select the right model for their needs. These range from simple and effective manual-driven models to advanced control units with intelligent functions. A host of efficiency-boosting technologies are available too, from remote control operation to smart features such as the Load Stability System (LSS) and Semi-Automatic Folding (SAF).
MGX will carry parts for the Hiab loader crane lineup and field a team of mobile service technicians to provide full product support. The Company will offer Hiab cranes sales, service, and parts support in Colorado, Delaware, Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Dakota, South Dakota, Virginia, Wyoming, and Utah.
“The HIAB range of cranes are perfect for a variety of applications, such as roofing, building materials handling, and concrete foundation work. There are also opportunities in rail, municipal, and utility work, so these really are versatile additions to just about any equipment fleet,” said Keith Poff.
MGX Equipment Services is growing their footprint in the Central U.S., rebranding its Aspen Equipment facilities in Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, and Missouri to the MGX Equipment Services brand. While signage is changing, customers will continue to receive full support for new and used crane sales, parts, service, and rentals of Grove, Manitowoc, and National Crane products. The Missouri location is also an authorized dealer for Potain tower cranes in the Kansas City region.
The ’Upfits by Aspen Equipment’ brand builds on Aspen’s decades of experience in work truck upfitting for the construction, mining, railroad, tree care, and utility end markets. Turnkey work truck upfits incorporate bodies and components from many industry-leading brands including Palfinger, BrandFX, Reading Truck, Switch-N-Go, and more to offer customers a comprehensive product lineup with full-service aftermarket support.
“This rebranding initiative leverages the reputation of the Aspen Equipment name in the upfitting market while allowing for complete synergy with the MGX brand as we position ourselves for growth and better service the needs of our customers,” says Keith Poff, VP & GM at MGX Equipment Services.
