Supporting Large-Scale Construction and Infrastructure Projects in Turkey

The client is a regional construction contractor in Turkey, primarily involved in commercial real estate development, municipal infrastructure, and industrial zone construction. Projects are typically large in scale, fast-paced, and often executed under tight delivery schedules driven by investor and government timelines.

Operational Challenges

Before introducing telescopic handlers, the contractor relied on wheel loaders, forklifts, and rented cranes across multiple sites.

Key operational pain points included:

  • Inefficient material handling on multi-level sites
    Forklifts lacked reach, while wheel loaders were unsuitable for precision lifting.
  • Heavy reliance on crane rentals
    Even short-term lifting tasks required full crane mobilization.
  • High labor intensity for material redistribution
    Materials were frequently unloaded at ground level and rehandled multiple times.

Material handling inefficiencies contributed to ≈25–30% productivity loss during peak construction phases.

VANSE Solution

VANSE supplied heavy-duty telescopic handlers configured for demanding construction environments:

  • High lifting capacity with extended forward reach
  • Robust chassis and drivetrain for uneven construction terrain
  • Multiple attachments enabling lifting, loading, and placement tasks

The machines were positioned as core site equipment, operating continuously throughout the project lifecycle.

Quantifiable Results

After deployment across several projects, the contractor reported:

  • ≈30% reduction in material handling time
    Direct placement to elevated work zones reduced rehandling.
  • ≈22% reduction in crane rental expenses
    Telescopic handlers absorbed routine lifting tasks.
  • Labor optimization
    Material handling teams reduced by 1–2 workers per shift.
  • Equipment consolidation
    One telescopic handler replaced:
    • 1 wheel loader (partial tasks)
    • 1 forklift
    • Frequent short-term crane usage

Conclusion

For large-scale construction projects in Turkey, VANSE telescopic handlers improved site efficiency, reduced reliance on rented equipment, and helped contractors maintain schedule control under high-pressure timelines.
