What Ramirent Norge does

Ramirent Norge is Norway's leading construction equipment rental company, operating 36+ customer centers from Alta in the north to Kristiansand in the south. The company rents lifts, excavators, scaffolding, modules, containers, power and heating equipment, and a full range of construction machines to enterprise and SMB customers across construction, infrastructure, municipal, agricultural, oil and gas, aquaculture, and wind power sectors. Notable reference customers include Betonmast, Oslo Kommune, Statens vegvesen, Storebrand Eiendom, Avinor Oslo Airport, and Bergen Kommune, and the company claims 60 years of industry heritage and 'one of Norway's largest' machine fleets.

The business operates a hybrid go-to-market combining a B2B field sales force across customer centers with a self-serve 24/7 digital rental platform (e-leie), a long-term rental subscription product (RamiFleet), and contract-based personalized pricing. Revenue is generated primarily through usage-based daily rental of physical equipment, supplemented by subscription long-term rentals, training (Ramirentskolen via Presto Training), and professional services including electrification planning, scaffolding design, and project consulting. Agricultural customers are reached through a channel partnership with the Agrol cooperative.

The technology stack is built on IoT-enabled fleet monitoring, GPS-tracked equipment sharing (RamiShare), digital-key access control tied to operator certification (RamiAccess), and a CO2-Kalkulator that delivers machine-specific emissions data per invoice, structured to the BEAst Supply 4.0 standard. Ramirent Norge is a wholly-owned subsidiary of LOXAM Group, Europe's largest equipment rental company, and is in a gradual post-acquisition integration ('the red journey'). The company has invested in fleet electrification (350 new electric lifts, electric-only lift ordering from H1 2026) and holds an EcoVadis Platinum rating (top 1% globally, score 90/100) targeting a 10,000-tonne CO2 reduction by 2030.
