With more than 22 years of experience in the crane industry, Chris has journeyed from his beginnings in machinery maintenance in 2002 to becoming a seasoned crane professional in various technical roles.
His background includes field service and maintenance, technical support, design and fabrication. In 2011, he moved to RaycoWylie as a service engineer, focusing on the technical development of products.
Over the years, Chris’s role evolved at RaycoWylie, resulting in his appointment as the UK engineering manager and UK quality lead in 2019.
In this role, Cartwright focused on bespoke engineering projects, technical support, collaborating directly with customers and distributors.
Chris Cartwright said, “Over the years Unic Cranes Europe has established itself as a leader in the compact crane market and with its recent product development, the company is demonstrating that it is committed to product innovation in the current market.”
He continued, “I am currently working closely with Unic Furukawa in Japan to advance the technical development of both new and existing products, with the aim of enhancing the Unic cranes range. Additionally, I am looking forward to liaising with the Unic dealer network to identify new opportunities for product development and expansion into new markets.
“I will be actively seeking real-time feedback from our distributors and sharing the feedback directly with the development team in Japan. This collaborative effort will ensure that Unic Cranes continue to evolve in alignment with the needs of customers and markets across Europe and the UAE.”
