New Cerea facility gives customers more options to manage their fleets, with equipment reconditioning, service and technical training in one location.
Hoofddorp, the Netherlands – (11 November, 2026) – JLG Industries, Inc., an Oshkosh Corporation business [NYSE:OSK] and a leading global manufacturer of mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) and telehandlers, is opening a new European Reconditioning Centre in Cerea, Italy. The facility will rebuild selected used JLG® boom lifts to like-new condition, helping customers extend equipment life and manage fleet investment. It will also provide expanded service, repair and technical training support.
Located approximately 15-km from the Hinowa facility in Nogara, the new JLG European Reconditioning Centre covers 7,700-m², including 2,500-m² of covered space and 435-m² of offices. By bringing these services together, JLG is expanding its support for European customers beyond the initial equipment purchase and throughout the working life of their machines.
“Our goal is to give customers more choice and greater confidence in how they manage their fleets,” says David Courtin, General Manager – Aftermarket Europe, JLG. “By bringing reconditioning, service and technical training together in Cerea, we can provide more support throughout the working life of their equipment. This is an important investment in strengthening our aftermarket services in Europe and delivering long-term value to customers.”
Giving Equipment a Second Productive Life
A key service at the new centre is the JLG Reconditioned Equipment (Recon) program. Through an OEM-defined reconditioning process, the program restores used JLG 600AJ, 660SJ, 800AJ and 860SJ boom lift models to like-new condition, giving them a second productive life. Additional models will be added over time.
The process goes beyond the repairs and servicing typically carried out before a used machine is resold. First, the machine is inspected to confirm it is suitable for reconditioning. JLG-trained technicians disassemble it to the core, and major components are removed for rebuilding or replacement with new JLG Genuine Parts. Reassembly follows the same strict OEM guidelines as new equipment manufacturing to restore the reconditioned equipment to original machine specifications.
Once rebuilt, JLG technicians identify and fix any discrepancies and follow a detailed checklist to ensure all functions and safety features meet JLG standards. After inspection, the machine goes through a final quality audit before it’s ready to return to service. Each reconditioned machine is backed by a two-year machine and engine warranty.
“Every fleet has different needs, and Recon gives customers another way to meet them,” says Laurent Dumez, Senior Manager Europe – Used and Recon, JLG. “Customers may need to replace an aging machine, add capacity to meet demand or keep existing equipment working longer. In some cases, the timing or availability of new equipment may not match their needs. The Recon program provides another option for these situations. Customers receive a machine extensively rebuilt by JLG, with major components renewed or replaced, extensive testing and backed by our expertise and warranty. This can help extend equipment life, make better use of fleet investment and support long-term fleet planning.”
By extending the working life of existing machines and reusing components where appropriate, JLG Recon can also support customers’ sustainability initiatives by helping make better use of equipment and resources.
More Service and Repair Support
The Cerea facility will also expand JLG’s ability to provide service and repairs for customers across Europe. The dedicated workshop will complement JLG’s existing network of authorized service centres, giving JLG more capacity to manage service and repairs, while continuing to work closely with its service partners.
This expanded support will help JLG respond to customers’ needs as their equipment ages, including after the original machine warranty expires.
Expanded Technical Training
The new centre will also offer more technical training for customer technicians, authorized service centres and other professionals working in the access industry.
Building on four years of training at JLG’s Nogara facility, where approximately 350 courses have been delivered and nearly 800 technicians trained, the Cerea centre will provide new classrooms and larger covered areas for practical training.
JLG plans to deliver four to five courses per month covering JLG, Hinowa and AUSA products, along with approximately 10 IPAF safety courses per year. JLG is an IPAF-approved training centre. Training will also include courses on JLG’s Online Express platform, helping customers and technicians use its digital tools for parts and aftermarket support.
By bringing reconditioning, service and training together at Cerea, JLG is giving European customers more ways to extend equipment life, manage fleet investment and access the technical support needed to keep their machines working.
