Sajil Salim,President and CEO
Salim Equipment Rental provides rental, sales, spares, repair and refurbishment of Japanese crawler cranes and other associated construction equipment, for the construction, oil and gas, electromechanical, petrochemical, marine and ship repair industries. Salim Equipment Rental is also the authorized distributor for Kato crawler cranes in the UAE.
The company’s rental fleet includes crawler cranes from Kato, Kobelco and Hitachi ranging from 70 to 250 tons. In 2020, Salim Equipment Rental entered the niche market of duty cycle operation and dynamic compaction and invested in two Liebherr HS8130.1 (130ton) cranes. The immediate success in the dynamic compaction market due to high utilisation of the cranes during 2020 encouraged the company to invest in two new Liebherr HS895 HD (200ton) models, which were delivered in February 2021.
Sajil Salim, president and CEO, Salim Equipment Rental, says: “We expect our four duty cycle cranes to be busy on soil improvement sites and duty cycle jobs throughout 2021. We see opportunity for significant growth in the next few years from ground improvement and duty cycle jobs related to infrastructure projects in the MENA region.”
