Turkish crane rental Coskun Vinç is expanding coverage of the market with new additions to its fleet. These new all-terrain cranes are being delivered in 2017 and are a Demag AC 500-8 and an AC 220-5. Coskun Vinç owners Servet and Sedat Coskun selected the two Demag models after consulting with newly appointed 2941 Terex Cranes president Steve Filipov and Kerim Basakinci, owner of DAS, Terex Crane’s Turkish distributor.

“We were pleased when Terex brought back the Demag brand earlier this year,” said Sedat Coskun. “Demag products have been an important part of our success over the last 32 years, and we’re excited to have the opportunity to add two new Demag all-terrain cranes to our fleet. We know they will perform well in the type of work we do for our customers, and the cranes' IC-1 Plus Control System will be a huge benefit on high-capacity lifts.”

“Manufacturing quality products that meet the everyday demands of the customer while delivering a high return-on-investment is a top priority,” claimed Steve Filipov, which is why he got right to work meeting with customers and distributors after assuming the role of president of Terex Cranes in October 2016.

“Our business partnership with Terex Cranes and DAS is important to us,” added Coskun. “We have a long trustworthy relationship with their teams. They have helped us grow our business and are responsive to our needs.”
