St. Enoch Shopping Centre, Glasgow
Product: Maeda MC405 fitted with fly jib
Client: Ivanhoe Cambridge
A Maeda MC405 was used to lift the amazing reindeer 'sculpture' (designed and installed by Centre Design). The Maeda was chosen because of its incredibly compact dimensions coupled with massive lifting capacity. The mini crane was fitted with a special 'fly-jib' to enable the reindeer to be lifted over 20m into position.
St. Enoch Centre, owned and managed by Ivanhoe Cambridge, is located in Glasgow's busy city centre, one of the UK's top shopping destinations outside London. The centre has recently undergone an exciting transformation programme, completed in Autumn 2009. The centre now has an extended mall with new stores, a wider selection of eating places and a new entrance at Buchanan Street, as well as an extreme makeover for the whole centre.
