Ace Industries has completed the installation of 15 freestanding 1t jib cranes at a repurposed facility for a client in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, US.
The project involved updating an older site, which now functions as a workspace equipped with new lifting solutions.
The Baton Rouge team managed the installation process, supporting the conversion and operational requirements of the customer.
Ace Industries, established in 1932, supplies and manufactures overhead crane and hoist systems across the US.
The company operates over 30 branches, including warehouses, service centres, and sales offices.
Ace distributes electric chain hoists, wire rope hoists, hand chain hoists, trolleys, crane components, and related parts from regional warehouses in Houston, Atlanta, and Cincinnati.
Its offerings also include overhead bridge cranes, gantry cranes, and runway systems designed and built at its own facilities.
The company’s engineering staff oversees structural, mechanical, and electrical aspects to ensure equipment meets customer needs.
Ace Industries maintains a large service department with more than 140 service vehicles and provides mobile hydraulic lifts when necessary.
Last month, Ace Industries completed the installation of a 10t, 55ft free-standing runway crane system at an indoor facility, with the project managed by its Thomasville branch in Georgia, US.
The system, which included a Detroit Hoist, became operational and supported daily activities at the site. Crew members reported increased efficiency after the crane installation.
