Veteran and steel wire rope expert Frits van Boetzelaer, together with product specialist Ayrton Dekker and chief engineering Kevin Poot, talk about the multifaceted and fascinating world of steel wire rope.

Mennens has been building its own cranes since the 1990s. A lot has changed since then - organizationally and in the crane business itself. Project manager Johan Hoekstra and Meindert Wiersma, inspector and service engineer below and above the hook, have been there since day one. They talk about their experiences now and then.
