Next Level in Tight Access Lifting: MCT Equipment Introduces Hoeflon Compact Cranes

MCT Equipment is proud to announce the addition of Hoeflon compact cranes to its growing range of alternative lifting solutions. Designed and manufactured in the Netherlands, Hoeflon spider cranes are globally recognised for their power, precision, and manoeuvrability — the go-to choice when space is tight, but performance can’t be compromised.

From construction and glass installation to industrial applications and machine relocation, Hoeflon is reshaping compact lifting with safety, efficiency, and cutting-edge technology. These cranes feature remote operation for enhanced on-site safety and can even charge while in use, allowing for continuous, non-stop work.

Hoeflon: Compact Lifting, Maximum Performance

From construction sites and glass handling to industrial maintenance and machine relocation, Hoeflon’s mini cranes deliver exceptional lifting capability in tight or confined spaces. Designed for efficiency, safety, and sustainability, every model in the Hoeflon range features electric operation, enabling quiet performance and zero emissions — ideal for both indoor and outdoor use.

Each Hoeflon mini crane can be operated remotely for enhanced on-site safety and precision control. In addition, many models can charge while in use, providing continuous operation and reducing downtime — a true game-changer for productivity-focused projects.

“We search the world for the best products, and Hoeflon represents the next level in tight-access lifting,” said Anthony Grosser, Managing Director of MCT Equipment. “Their design and capabilities make them ideal for the challenging environments our clients face every day.”
