Hammar, an established international manufacturer of sideloader semi-trailers and superstructures, has announced a strategic partnership with Houston-based CraneWorks to expand its installation, service, and parts support across the United States.
Through its U.S. division, Hammar Lift Inc., Hammar has appointed CraneWorks as its official U.S. installation, service, and parts support agent. The collaboration is aimed at improving customer access to Hammar sideloader solutions while providing local technical support through CraneWorks’ nationwide service network.
CraneWorks is a well-established provider of heavy lifting solutions in North America and has further strengthened its market position since October 2023, when it partnered with and received an investment from Equity Group Investments. The company’s service footprint and technical expertise make it a strong partner for supporting Hammar’s growing U.S. customer base.
“Partnering with CraneWorks strengthens our ability to support customers across the United States with the quality and reliability Hammar is known for worldwide,” said David Gustafsson, Vice President of Hammar Lift Inc. “Their nationwide service network and deep experience in heavy equipment make them an ideal partner for our continued U.S. expansion.”
Mike Evans, President and COO of CraneWorks, added: “Hammar’s sideloader technology complements our goal of expanding lifting solutions beyond traditional cranes into broader logistics and transport applications. This partnership allows us to offer a versatile, efficient, and safe product line backed by strong service support.”
With more than 50 years of development and deliveries to over 125 countries, Hammar operates one of the world’s largest sideloader population. The partnership will initially focus on U.S. installations, service support, and localised parts supply, strengthening customer support nationwide.
