MANITOWOC: POTAIN MD 305 B LEADS CONSTRUCTION WORK ON MAJOR NEW APARTMENT DEVELOPMENT IN MOLDOVA

Real estate developer Filli Partner purchased a used Potain MD 305 B for work on its City Plaza development, a residential project under construction in central Ungheni. Building work is set to last two years, with the project’s opening scheduled for the first quarter of 2025.

The Potain MD 305 B has a maximum capacity of 12 t, with up to 70 m of jib available, and the ability to lift 3.2 t at its jib end. On the City Plaza job, the crane is working with its full 70 m jib, allowing it to cover the entire jobsite. The crane was purchased through Manitowoc’s regional Used Cranes sales team.

Used cranes from Potain provide a high-quality option at a lower cost and customers get peace of mind knowing Manitowoc’s industry-leading support network will be standing behind their purchase. Customers receive many of the same benefits that come with purchasing a new crane, and delivery times can often be as little as a few weeks.




Once complete, the City Plaza project will cover 34,000 sq. m, with 24,000 sq. m of residential space dedicated to 234 homes. There’s an additional 9,500 sq. m for commercial space, with the 10-story building eventually standing 32 m above ground.
