Nuova ICOM deploys new Grove GRT8120 for industrial plant build at major Italian seaport

• The company is a big fan of Grove, with the majority of its fleet from the brand.
• The GRT8120 will help construct a new industrial plant to build sections for a gas pipeline in Norway.

Italian industrial company Nuova ICOM has sent its new Grove GRT8120 rough-terrain crane straight to work on the construction of a manufacturing plant at the Porto Canale of Cagliari, Sardinia. Building work began in September last year, and the company received its new Grove GRT8120 in February this year to support construction.

Nuova ICOM is a committed user of Grove mobile cranes, with the majority of its cranes coming from the brand. All its Grove cranes are sold and supported via Manitech, a subsidiary of Italian Grove dealer FIMI, and a long-standing Nuova ICOM partner.

"We love the performance we get with the Grove GRT8120. A 60 m boom and a maximum tip height of 80.8 m, from a crane with 120 t capacity - and all that on just two axles. It's so versatile in terms of set-up, operating height, and lift capacity. Plus, we get all the benefits of a Grove GRT in terms of reliability and maneuverability," said Alessandro Calledda, general manager at Nuova ICOM.
