Zoomlion is now offering four of its concrete pump models through its CIFA network in Europe

The firm owns the Italian concrete pump and concrete mixer brand CIFA, but will now sell Zoomlion branded concrete machines in Europe also.

The firm will sell its range of concrete pumps in Europe, alongside its other equipment already marketed in the territory such as cranes. The firm says that its heavy-duty concrete pumps are designed with basic levels of technology making them simple to maintain and use, suiting use by less expert operators. These pumps are highly durable and reliable and will be available on premium quality truck chassis. The company is offering four models in Europe, with boom lengths of 36m, 40m and 56m. The 36m and 40m models have five section booms and feature open loop hydraulics, while the 49m and 56m models have six section booms and feature closed loop hydraulics.
