Jaso Industrial Cranes signs UK steel production deal

Spanish company Jaso Industrial Cranes has been awarded a contract worth more than £10m to supply new overhead cranes for a Великобритания-based steel production company.

The seven cranes will service Sheffield Forgemasters’ new 13,000t heavy forge, which is under construction at its Brightside Lane site, and will range from 20t to 380t individual lifting capacity.

Jaso beat five other crane suppliers in the tender process to be awarded preferred bidder status for the design, supply and installation of the overhead cranes at the UK’s largest open-die forging line.

The cranes are due to be supplied and fitted between March 2025 and July 2025.

Aitor Guesalaga, general manager at Jaso Industrial Cranes, said: “Sheffield Forgemasters is installing a high-specification heavy forging line and we are delighted to be bringing our expertise in the design and manufacture of overhead cranes for these types of facilities to this project.

“The forging line will be one of the most advanced in Europe and the largest of its kind in the UK.”

Steve Marshall, manufacturing transformation director at Sheffield Forgemasters, said: “Jaso Industrial Cranes has been appointed as our preferred bidder for all seven of the overhead cranes required to operate our new forging facility.

“The tender process was very tightly contested, but Jaso have a significant amount of experience in supply of cranes for hot metal and steelworks, which is extremely important for the work that we are undertaking.

“We will be installing a single 25t crane, two service cranes with 100/20t capacity, a 180/40t capacity crane, one 250/50t crane and two main 380/120t forge cranes in our new 12,700m2 forge building.”

Sheffield Forgemasters’ 13,000t forging line is part of a substantial recapitalisation programme for the company, which will also include new machining facilities to service its defence contracts.

Jaso has more than 50 years of experience and has installed more than 50,000 machines worldwide since 1965.
