With a renewed focus on heavy equipment, Titan Equipment successfully acquired its first agency in 1978, for the New Zealand rights to sell P&H Cranes.

Titan has been privileged to hold the Kato Crane New Zealand agency for the last 30 years. This successful partnership means Kato Cranes are now well represented in many of the crane hire fleets around New Zealand. Their quality and longevity well proven over the past three decades.

In 2012 Titan Equipment was awarded the Terex Crane agency, which diversified our portfolio into the supply of all terrain cranes as well as the Terex pick and carry cranes manufactured in Australia.
In 2019, Kato Works acquired IHI Japan, a market leader in the manufacture of crawler cranes. With the range fine-tuned and the re-branding completed, we are enthusiastic about the new opportunities this expanded range of Kato cranes now offers the New Zealand market.

In 2020, Terex sold off a number of divisions including the Demag product and the Franna division re-emerged as the flagship of Terex Australia with the factory expanding space and models. Freshly re-branded with an expansion of its sales network worldwide, Titan was retained to represent the Franna pick and carry cranes throughout New Zealand.
