Ruthmann expands German service

Ruthmann is continuing to expand its German service network, extending or replacing existing locations.

The next step in this programme, which began in 2014, is an extension to its current facility in Groß-Gerau, Hesse, which will include 40 percent more workshop space, to cope with increased demand to service and repair its own products, as well as the brands it represents in Germany, such as Versalift, and in preparation for its new Italian products following its acquisition of the Bluelift spider lifts and Ram truck mounted platforms.

The company has also acquired land in Geisenfeld-Ilmendorf, near Ingoldstadt, where it will build a state of the art service station with 14 repair bays. The new facility will replace its current location in Ingoldstadt, which is already too cramped to cope.
