Improving Construction and Industrial Handling Efficiency in Spain

The client is a mid-sized construction and industrial services company in Spain, active in commercial building projects, logistics park construction, and industrial facility maintenance. Projects are typically characterized by tight urban sites, strict safety regulations, and high productivity expectations.

Operational Challenges

The company previously relied on a combination of forklifts, wheel loaders, and rented cranes.

Major pain points included:

  • Limited vertical reach on urban construction sites
    Forklifts could not support upper-floor material delivery.
  • High crane rental dependency
    Short-duration lifts still required full crane mobilization.
  • Inefficient equipment coordination
    Multiple machines operating simultaneously increased congestion and safety risks.

Crane-related costs accounted for 15–20% of total equipment expenditure on medium-sized projects.

VANSE Solution

VANSE provided mid-duty telescopic handlers tailored for urban and industrial environments:

  • Precise hydraulic control for confined spaces
  • Stable lifting performance for elevated material placement
  • Quick-change attachments enabling rapid task switching

The machines were integrated into daily workflows alongside existing equipment.

Quantifiable Results

Following deployment, the company achieved:

  • ≈25% improvement in on-site material placement efficiency
    Direct lifting to target floors reduced manual handling.
  • ≈18% reduction in overall equipment rental costs
    Less frequent crane usage for routine lifts.
  • Fleet optimization
    Each telescopic handler replaced:
    • 2 forklifts for vertical stacking
    • Partial crane use on mid-rise projects
  • Improved site safety and workflow clarity
    Fewer machines reduced congestion in narrow urban sites.

Conclusion

VANSE telescopic handlers enabled the client to balance productivity and safety on complex urban and industrial projects, delivering measurable cost savings and smoother site operations.
