Zoomlion’s Giant Crane Supports 2030 World Cup Stadium Construction - MikePhua - 06-28-2025
Under the scorching sun of Morocco, the giant arm of the Zoomlion ZCC9800W crawler crane slowly moves, precisely lifting hundreds of tons of steel structures into place, contributing to the construction of the Rabat Sports Stadium for the 2030 FIFA World Cup. This stadium will welcome global football fans during the upcoming tournament.
As the 2030 World Cup draws closer, host country Morocco is accelerating its stadium construction efforts. The Zoomlion ZCC9800W crawler crane, a "giant" and "star product" in the construction machinery field, is playing a central role in the project, showcasing exceptional lifting capabilities on Moroccan construction sites. The equipment has received high praise from the project team: "Its overall lifting performance far surpasses other products in the same category."
The construction of the stadium involves lifting numerous heavy-duty equipment and components into precise locations. With its powerful lifting capacity and stability, Zoomlion's equipment handles these challenging tasks with ease. After completing the major lifting tasks at the Rabat Sports Stadium, this "Made-in-China" crane, weighing in at over 1,000 tons, will move on to assist in the construction of the world’s largest football stadium, the Hassan II Stadium.
The ZCC9800W is not only active in sports stadium construction but has also made its mark in wind turbine and petrochemical lifting projects. The crane has proven its resilience in extreme environments, operating stably in the frigid -40°C temperatures of Inner Mongolia and lifting with precision even in wind speeds exceeding 8m/s in Vietnam. Furthermore, the ZCC9800W was the first of its kind to enter the European market, proving that Chinese manufacturing has a strong voice in the high-end equipment sector.
In recent years, Zoomlion has continued to make strides in the large-tonnage crane sector, producing world-class crawler cranes and all-terrain cranes that have been highly successful globally. These products redefine "high-end equipment" with their extraordinary technical strength, setting new benchmarks for large-tonnage cranes worldwide. Zoomlion's growth reflects the rise of China’s high-end manufacturing in the global construction machinery industry.
