Sarens in Paris recently had the privilege of supporting its client on an exceptional operation in the heart of the French capital: the helicopter lifting of four 4,2-tonne air heaters onto the roof of the French National Library in Paris’ 13th arrondissement.

Our involvement went far beyond the lift itself. Together with our partners, we managed the entire logistical and technical chain, including:

• Storage and reloading of the equipment from our Paris depot
• Exceptional convoy transport to the French National Library
• Ground unloading of the air heaters with a Liebherr LTM 1060 for flight preparation
• Coordination of more than 30 field personnel, including site marking and traffic deviation
• Provision of specialised slings adapted for helicopter lifting
• Final aerial lifting executed by SAF Helicopter and its Super Puma

This project showcases Sarens in Paris’ ability to deliver turnkey operations that combine handling, logistics, engineering, and lifting — all under the highest safety and efficiency standards.

We extend our gratitude to our partners and the dedicated teams involved for their professionalism and flawless execution.
