Crane and rigging projects must be guided and developed only by experts and at AME we have all the certifications to validate our capabilities in this type of job. We have the expertise to achieve success in all that construction and building include.

The most frequent causes of crane accidents are related to contact with power lines, mechanical failure, falls, and overturns. It is known that nearly 45% of the reported accidents in these areas are caused by contact with power sources such as power carrying lines, followed by falls whether related to the load being lifted or overturns of the equipment itself.  

AME´s team knows that it´s not only about knowing the job per se, it’s about knowing how the machinery works, and how to use this properly to avoid no unforeseen happens, so we can rely not only on the best equipment available in the market but also on the best human team.
