Fulco Vrooland, Group CEO, says: “The ROHR-IDRECO Group welcomes the entry of the investor consortium in the Mannheim subsidiary. Close commercial and technical cooperation between Rohr Bagger and the ROHR-IDRECO Group will continue, giving us the opportunity to focus on our international expansion whilst still offering the full product portfolio of suction, clamshell, and bucketladder dredges.

We are excited to work with the new ownership team to continually improve our ability to build, service, and support the new and existing equipment in our markets.”
