Wolter Inc. continues to expand its footprint in the Ohio market with the recent acquisition of crane and hoist manufacturer, Cincinnati Crane & Hoist (CC&H).

Wolter believes the acquisition of CC&H, which has delivered crane and hoist solutions for more than 16 years, will enhance its capabilities and facilitate an expansion of its product offerings in the crane industry.

Wolter sells a range of materials handling products and services including forklifts and cranes.

"This acquisition allows us to leverage our strengths and expand our offerings of crane and hoist solutions,” Jerry Weidmann, president of Wolter Inc., explains.

“CC&H's innovation and expertise in custom crane systems perfectly align with our commitment to accelerating productivity. Together, we aim to set new industry standards, ensuring our customers receive unparalleled support-from initial design and installation to commissioning, and ongoing service and maintenance.”

The acquisition comes after a brief lull in Wolter’s extensive expansion which saw the company buy Ohio Valley Maintenance in December 2022, after acquiring Valley Industrial Crane in Dayton, Ohio in April 2022, and Integrity Industrial Equipment in Huber Heights, Ohio in August 2020.

Terms of the latest acquisition were not disclosed.
