Sarens – The Pioneer of Ground Breaking Lifting Technologies and Specialised Transport in Bangladesh

Sarens is the worldwide leader and reference in the heavy lifting and specialised transport sector. We officially entered Bangladesh in 2018 but we have been a trusted partner and contributor in the growth story of Bangladesh since 2003. In the past over a decade, we have been the pioneers in introducing some of the most modern heavy lifting technologies and specialised equipment in Bangladesh: • In 2003, Sarens introduced the SPMTs (Self-Propelled Modular Trailer).  • In 2015, Sarens performed the first tandem lifting process with two 600-tonne cranes at the Ashuganj Power Plant. • In 2016, Sarens also for the first time deployed a 600-tonne mobile crane at the Shidhirganj Power Plant. Bangladesh's Government is determined to focus on significant investments in infrastructure development and industry growth and establish itself as the next ideal investment destination in South Asia. Policy reforms, infrastructure boost, and growth of the Power, Oil & Gas, Civil, and Mining sectors offer a conducive growth environment. By establishing our presence in Bangladesh, we have been able to stay close to our clients and provide them with our global expertise and equipment. This has also helped us create local ownership, foster a feeling of belonging among our staff members, and make us more competitive because it allows us to serve more local clients, keep transport costs low, and focus on efficiency.

 

 

The Regional Director, South Asia, Arun Savanur adds,

 

“Flexibility remains a key focus for our organization. This means we can react and act immediately to provide the correct solutions for customers, whether they need a rental crane or a comprehensive project solution.”

 

Before the pandemic, Sarnes was started with five people in the team with one piece of equipment. In this difficult situation, where every company is optimizing the human resources, we are expanding our business by recruiting manpower, investing in equipments, and supporting Bangladesh to their desired growth.
