Helicopter Lifting Services in Croatia (Up to 700 kg)

When trucks can’t reach the site and cranes don’t have the required range, helicopter lifting services provide the fastest and most efficient solution.

Heliwork operations in Croatia are increasingly used on islands, in historic city centers, and at remote or hard-to-access locations where traditional logistics becomes impractical or too slow.

For these operations, the proven Eurocopter AS350 B2 is the ideal choice — a reliable helicopter known for its power, stability, and precision when handling external loads up to approximately 700 kg.


What is heliwork?

Heliwork refers to the use of helicopters for:

  • external load lifting (sling operations)
  • precise placement of equipment
  • construction and logistics support
  • transport to remote or inaccessible locations

It is typically used when:

  • cranes cannot reach the site
  • ground access is limited or impossible
  • time efficiency is critical

? In many cases, helicopter lifting significantly reduces project time and complexity.


Why choose the AS350 B2?

The Eurocopter AS350 B2 is a widely trusted platform for aerial lifting operations across Europe.

Key advantages:

  • excellent hover stability for precise positioning
  • strong performance in high temperatures and demanding conditions
  • reliable external cargo hook system
  • cost-effective compared to larger helicopters

This makes it ideal for helicopter lifting up to 700 kg in real-world conditions.


What can be lifted?

Typical use cases for helicopter cargo lifting include:

  • rooftop jacuzzis and pools
  • HVAC and air conditioning units
  • solar panels and energy systems
  • construction materials (beams, structures)
  • generators and technical equipment

? Important: besides weight, dimensions, balance and rigging are critical for safe operations.


Where is helicopter lifting used in Croatia?

Helicopter lifting services are especially valuable in:

  • Croatian islands (Hvar, Vis, Lošinj, Brač)
  • remote or mountainous terrain
  • historic city centers (Split, Dubrovnik)
  • luxury villas with limited access

? In these environments, helicopter lifting is often the only practical solution.


Speed and precision

One of the biggest advantages of heliwork is efficiency:

  • lifting and placement often take just minutes
  • entire operations can be completed within a short timeframe
  • precision can reach within a few centimeters

With an experienced crew, results are fast, safe, and highly accurate.


Cost of helicopter lifting services

Pricing depends on:

  • project location
  • load weight and type
  • operational complexity
  • flight time required

Although it is a premium service, helicopter lifting often reduces total project costs by:

  • eliminating the need for large cranes
  • reducing labor and setup time
  • simplifying logistics

Safety and regulations

All operations comply with EASA standards, including:

  • certified operators
  • experienced pilots
  • trained ground crew
  • clearly defined safety procedures

Safety is always the top priority.


Helicopter lifting in Croatia – fast and reliable

With its unique geography and extensive coastline, Croatia is an ideal environment for heliwork operations.

Helicopter lifting services in Croatia enable projects that would otherwise be significantly more complex, costly, or even impossible.
