Genie Launches Pick-and-Carry Telehandler for Large Material-Intensive Jobsites

  • Posted on

The new Genie GTH-1544 pick-and-carry telehandler is designed to move materials efficiently across large-scale construction and infrastructure projects, steel erection, industrial maintenance and energy applications.
