Verlinde Cranes in Singapore: The EUROBLOC VT Hoist Range Explained

You’ve been told to source a Verlinde hoist for a new installation, and you’re trying to work out which version fits your headroom and who will service it once it’s running.

We are Jenmon International, the authorised agent for Verlinde Cranes in Singapore. That means we supply, install and maintain genuine Verlinde equipment here as an authorised local agent. The core of that range is the EUROBLOC VT electric wire rope hoist, and this article walks through what it is, the key factors to consider when selecting a configuration, and what to check before you specify one.

Where can I get genuine Verlinde hoists serviced in Singapore?

Servicing through an authorised agent can provide access to the right technical knowledge, genuine spare parts, and trained technicians.

We supply and service the EUROBLOC VT wire rope hoist range directly. 

What does the EUROBLOC VT range actually cover?

The range spans loads from 800 kg up to 80,000 kg, covering applications from lower-capacity lifting to heavy industrial lifting. The range is available in different configurations to suit different lifting requirements.

Choosing the right hoist configuration is important because available headroom can affect the usable lifting height of an installation.

How do you choose the right version for your site?

Start with the load you need to lift, the available headroom, and the type of installation. These factors can help narrow down the suitable EUROBLOC VT configuration. 

If you’re not certain which configuration fits, a practical next step is to request a technical sheet before committing to a purchase. That gives you the technical information you need to check the hoist against your site requirements before deciding.

We’d also flag one honest limitation here. A hoist spec sheet tells you what the equipment can do under standard conditions. It doesn’t replace an actual site assessment, particularly when existing site conditions need to be checked against the equipment requirements. We recommend assessing the installation requirements before finalising a higher-capacity hoist.

What comes after installation?

Genuine Verlinde equipment still requires regular maintenance and inspections to support safe and reliable operation, helping to identify wear and potential issues before they lead to equipment problems. This is standard practice across the lifting industry, not something unique to one brand.

Project clients have also recognised Jenmon’s after-sales support. Following the Thomson-East Coast Line T226 project, Taisei Corporation expressed satisfaction with Jenmon’s timely installation and after-sales support.

If you’re specifying a hoist for a new project or need an existing Verlinde installation serviced, send us an enquiry, and we’ll go through the load, headroom, and mounting details with you.

Frequently asked questions

Is Jenmon an authorised Verlinde agent in Singapore?
We are the Authorised Agent of Verlinde in Singapore, providing genuine Verlinde equipment and related support locally.

Can the EUROBLOC VT be used with an existing crane system, or only new installations?
It depends on the existing crane’s structure and rated capacity. A site assessment can help confirm compatibility, as retrofitting a hoist onto an existing runway requires the crane structure and rated capacity to be assessed.

Does a higher patent count mean the hoist is more expensive to maintain?
Not necessarily. Patents cover design innovation, not maintenance complexity. Genuine parts availability and proper technician training matter more for long-term maintenance cost than the number of patents behind the original design.

What factors determine the right EUROBLOC VT configuration?
The appropriate configuration depends on the lifting requirements, available headroom, load capacity, and the crane system. Jenmon can advise on the suitable configuration based on the project requirements.
