Cranab’s factories are located in Vindeln, deep in the forests of West Bothnia. Here we develop and manufacture world-class cranes and grapples. We are driven by a genuine passion for forestry, recycling and road clearance technology. Our unyielding goal is to constantly push technology development forwards.

We have access to two modern, well equipped factories and continuous cooperation with professional foresters of all kinds, who help us with our design and testing. This cooperation between the culture of forestry, modern technology and advanced development work, is the best guarantee that our products always meet the highest standards. Our staff work with advanced industrial handcraft. With 50 years of experience, we can meet the highest demands of forestry work. This is why we always say that our strength lies in the details. None of our products are complete without thorough testing. Our quality control is already aligned with future regulations and gives the customer lasting quality.

Cranab`s products, cranes and crane-tip equipment for professional mechanised forestry have been designed, manufactured and sold since the early 60s. In addition to the Swedish home market, our products are sold in numerous countries around the world. Our long experience and the demand for reliable products has also resulted in business opportunities within recycling and salvage handling.
