Barnhart Crane & Rigging and C&S Companies of Syracuse have reached a definitive agreement under which Barnhart will purchase C&S Crane & Rigging Company. C&S has served industrial, commercial and public sector customers throughout upstate New York since 2008 with 15- to 200-ton cranes, as well as specialized rigging equipment. Currently, Barnhart has 25 branches nationwide, and has one of the nation's largest equipment inventories including electronic steer Goldhofer trailers, cranes to 1,760 tons, sliding systems, strand jacks, and the Modular Lift Tower system.
"This is an extremely positive move for both companies," said Alan Barnhart, CEO of Barnhart. "The acquisition of the C&S Rigging Company gives us greater access to a very important geography: upstate New York State. With this new branch we will be able to better serve our customers in this area, particularly those in renewable and nuclear energy."
Lift & Access is part of the Catalyst Communications Network publication family.
