JLG Opens European Reconditioning Centre in Italy

JLG Industries is opening a new European Reconditioning Centre in Cerea, Italy, expanding its aftermarket, repair and technical training capabilities across the region.

Located around 15 km from the Hinowa facility in Nogara, the new site covers 7,700 m², including 2,500 m² of covered space and 435 m² of offices.

A key function of the facility will be JLG’s Reconditioned Equipment programme, which rebuilds selected used boom lifts to like-new condition. Initial models include the 600AJ, 660SJ, 800AJ and 860SJ, with further machines expected to be added later.

Each unit is inspected before being stripped back to its core structure. Major components are then rebuilt or replaced using JLG Genuine Parts before the machine is reassembled to original specifications.

Following functional and safety checks, each reconditioned machine undergoes a final quality audit and is supplied with a two-year machine and engine warranty.

“By bringing reconditioning, service and technical training together in Cerea, we can provide more support throughout the working life of their equipment,” said David Courtin, General Manager – Aftermarket Europe at JLG.

The centre will also expand JLG’s service and repair capacity in Europe, complementing its existing network of authorised service centres.

Technical training will form another major part of the site’s activities. JLG plans to deliver four to five courses per month covering JLG, Hinowa and AUSA products, alongside around 10 IPAF safety courses each year.

JLG said the new facility is intended to give customers more options for extending equipment life, managing fleet investment and maintaining older machines beyond their original warranty periods.
