Press Releases

On October 2nd, 2017, RUTHMANN acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of HUBItec AG. The company now operates under the new name – RUTHMANN Schweiz AG. With this acquisition, HUBItech’s existing operational framework will be adopted and expanded. This is another major milestone in RUTHMANN’s ongoing internationalization initiative. The company has now achieved all of its strategic goals in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

On September 21st ,2017 – after just 7 months of construction – RUTHMANN opened its brand-new Bavarian service center. The previous location in Ingolstadt could no longer meet the ever-growing customer requirements. RUTHMANN invested 2.4 million euros in the new service center in Geisenfeld-Ilmendorf – located just 15 km from the previous location. Further expansion is being planned.

The well-known Spanish equipment rental company – AP Lift – recently took delivery of a RUTHMANN HEIGHT performance-STEIGER ® T 630 and a 3.5 t RUTHMANN STEIGER ® TB 270+. The deal was arranged by AMCO Machinery & Consulting – RUTHMANN’s new sales and service partner in Spain.

After placing a record-breaking order with RUTHMANN in 2015, the same customer is back for more in 2016.

After enjoying yet another successful year in 2015, RUTHMANN has started the year with many orders on hand. Numerous incoming orders were processed in January alone. For the German aerial work platform manufacturer, 2016 looks very promising indeed.

RUTHMANN’s motto at this year’s bauma trade show is “REVOLUTION.” The German truck-mounted aerial work platform specialist has announced that it is about to unveil a couple of new innovations.

The market leader RUTHMANN for truck mounted aerial platforms has acquired shares of the Marti Group in Montescudo (manufacturer of Bluelift and RAM Platform products), Italy, as part of its expansion strategy. The aim is to serve international markets as a whole.

With bauma 2016, RUTHMANN has added four brand new highflex STEIGER ® models to its extremely successful HEIGHT performance-series.

Efficient, universally applicable and easy to handle. These features characterize RUTHMANN's 3.5-t-top model, the STEIGER ® TB 270+. The Finnish Platform owner Janneniska has decided for this variant 35 times over.

The Catalan crane and working platform rental Grúas Romaní received the brand-new RUTHMANN HEIGHT-performance STEIGER ® T540 punctually at the start of the repair season of the wind energy technology industry.
