The Wilbert factory, acquired by Zoomlion in 2018, has evolved from a single-purpose tower crane manufacturer into a multi-category industrial base covering tower cranes, concrete machinery, and mobile cranes. This transformation is central to Zoomlion’s strategy of building a comprehensive European production network. Earlier this year, the company broke ground on the second phase of its German factory in Waldlaubersheim and inaugurated a new aerial work platform plant in Hungary. These projects aim to create an integrated hub for product display, sales, manufacturing, and service in Europe, improving supply efficiency and responsiveness to local markets.

He emphasized the region’s favorable infrastructure, skilled workforce, and strong technical base, underscoring the potential for mutual success.

With 13 overseas R&D and manufacturing bases and operations in more than 170 countries and regions, Zoomlion is committed to combining localized manufacturing with global expertise. The company will continue to broaden its European product portfolio and enhance service responsiveness, further consolidating its position as a leader in intelligent equipment manufacturing worldwide.
