Mammoet removes iconic bank signs on Rotterdam tower using a Tadano lattice boom crawler crane.


Utrecht, The Netherlands-headquartered international heavy lift and transport specialist Mammoet was commissioned by sign specialist Licht en Reclame Consultants to remove three logos, for the bank Rabobank, from a tall observation tower in Rotterdam.


The signs had been installed on the Euromast


observation tower in Rotterdam’s Het Park since 2009. Since the advertisement contract between the bank and Euromast expired this year, however, the eight- metre-tall logo signage had to be removed from a height of 174 metres.


To do this Mammoet used a Tadano CC 38.650-1 lattice boom crawler crane. “There were two main reasons why we decided on the CC 38.650-1 for this unusual job,” says Stefan Plugge, Netherlands project manager at Mammoet. “First, it would make the required height of 174 metres a breeze to handle. Second, the crane’s compact design meant that it would be able to manoeuvre without issue despite cramped conditions at the site.” To transport its CC 38.650-1 from its Schiedam branch, which was located just a few kilometres away, the Mammoet team required a total of 38 transports.
