PROFILE
In addition to running a day-to-day
crane hire operation Vulcan Engineering have been specialising
in the lifting and transportation of heavy, oversize
modules and structures for the ship building and industrial
sectors in the last 15 years.
In December 2000, Vulcan Engineering
joined the “Big League” with the acquisition
of a Cometto Hydraulic Platform Trailer capable of lifting
and transporting loads up to 460 tonne in weight.
Vulcan Engineering has carried
out hundreds of specialised lifting and transportation
operations for our clients. Please find below details
