Fast-Growing Indian Real Estate Company Aparna Group Expands with Major Order for Potain Cranes
Leading Indian construction company Aparna Group recently announced a significant expansion of its fleet with the addition of multiple Potain MCT 85 top-slewing tower cranes. These new cranes are playing a vital role in a range of high-rise developments that highlight the company’s ongoing dedication to bringing innovation and quality to the Hyderabad skyline. The cranes are are currently working at 4 major luxury projects. “Tower cranes are the backbone of our projects. The performance and reliability of Potain cranes empower our team and give them the confidence to keep our projects on track. Our latest, substantial investment in new Potain cranes represents an important step for Aparna Group in further enhancing our construction capabilities. With Potain’s durability and reliability, we are well-equipped to continue delivering high-quality projects on time,” said Ediga Srinivasulu, head of supply chain management for Aparna Group. Aparna Group acquired its first Potain crane, a Potain MCi 85, in 2012, and has since expanded its fleet to over 40 cranes. Its latest investments are all MCT 85 models, which are manufactured locally at the Manitowoc factory in Pune. The cranes were selected for their powerful performance and compact design. Their design includes a 1.2 m square mast that enables them to be set up inside elevator shafts on projects, optimizing space and offering maximum coverage. The MCT 85 also features a maximum load capacity of 5 t and a jib length of up to 52 m, with a tip load of 1.1 t at full reach, providing exceptional versatility and precision. Another major benefit is the flat-top design for faster assembly, which also helps Aparna Group streamline its construction operations. Customer support is provided by the local Manitowoc team in India who help keep uptime to an absolute maximum. “Potain’s extensive inventory of spare parts and quick response times have been crucial in helping us manage our fleet. The high level of service we receive is a key factor in our long-standing relationship, and our decision to add these latest units,” noted Purna Prasad, general manager – supply chain.
