Terex Corp., a leading manufacturer of lifting and material processing products and services, has recently sold its boom truck, crossover and truck crane product lines to Load King, LCC, an arm of Custom Truck One Source L.P., along with its assets and parts business associated with these product lines.
Commenting on the move, John L. Garrison, Chairman & CEO, Terex Corp. said that this transaction completes one of the portfolio actions Terex announced in February 2019. He said the company will continue to implement its focus, simplify and execute to win strategy, and, by focusing on businesses at strong market positions, will efficiently concentrate its efforts to maximize value for its customers, team members and shareholders.
Speaking on the acquisition, Fred Ross, CEO, Custom Truck One Source, said that their firm is pleased to announce this purchase and its launch of truck crane, boom truck and crossover segments under the Load King brand.

He said the company, after the conclusion of this transaction with Load King and the Demag Mobile Cranes sale to Tadano Ltd., will remain in the rough terrain and tower crane businesses. Furthermore, it will fulfill global demand for tower cranes from its Fontanafredda, Italy plant and for rough terrain cranes from its Crespellano, Italy plant, including the popular RT 100US.
