Founded in 1983 by its current owner, CRB Crane started with a humble beginning in Livonia, Michigan with around five employees. Prior to starting his own company, the owner had worked in fabrication and had managed the shop and field operations of an established crane company in the Detroit area for four years.
As the company grew, it relocated to a larger facility in Warren, Michigan in 1986. Eventually, in 2000, CRB Crane constructed and relocated to a brand new, 24,000 square foot facility in Howell, Michigan while still retaining a 5,000 square foot service center in Warren.
Over the course of 40 years in business, CRB Crane has designed and constructed more than 2,500 systems that have been installed throughout the United States and Canada.
