Rent me: Allu opens up a Finnish rental business
Attachment manufacturer 2180 Allu has expanded into the rental business in the company’s home market of Finland.


Allu Finland, which has been manufacturing for more than 30 years, said the move provides Finnish customers with the opportunity to rent a Transformer brand attachment on a short-term basis before purchasing the unit.

Allu has had a rental equipment business in Germany for many years, operating through a wholly owned subsidiary. “We wanted to provide our customers with a flexible and risk free way to get an Allu product for a short period of time,” said Marjut Lindroos, Allu’s global marketing manager. “If necessary, Allu service personnel will provide assistance with technical issues, spare parts and accessories.”

Currently, there are several different units for rent in different sizes and with different blade options. Allu’s Transformer Series comprises an excavator/loader/tractor-mounted processing bucket, from the compact DL and D Series up to the largest M Series.

The series screens, pulverizes, aerates, blends, mixes, separates, even crushes, feeds and loads materials. This results in the feed material being effectively transformed into highly valuable products, making your business more efficient and more profitable, according to the company.

Allu operates from seven regional offices and distributes to more than 30 countries.
