RSSThe 6233 IMER continues to develop its construction product offering with the signing of an agreement with German firm 2321 Waitzinger Baumaschinen.

The deal strengthens the IMER Group's Concrete Machinery Division as Neu-Ulm-based Waitzinger is a well-recognised manufacturer of concrete pumps. Through the new agreement the IMER Group will now offer a complete range of truck-mounted concrete pumps made in Italy but designed in Germany by Waitzinger. The machines are said to be innovative in design with features including a novel outrigger system that has been patented by the German company.

Manufacture of the concrete pumps is underway in the IMER Group's facility at Udine in Italy and these units compliment the firm's existing range of truck mixers and concrete batching plants. Models now available from the IMER Group include the R436 XS, which has a 36m, four section boom as well as Waitzinger's XS outriggers and the R442 ST with a 42m, four section boom and featuring Waitzinger's ST outriggers.
