containers, a Combilift Tipper loads
20” containers with bulk materials such
as cereals, multidirectional 5t and 8t
forklifts are used for handling long loads
and an Aisle Master articulated forklift
works indoors for space saving storage,
as well as inside containers. Some of
the models are fitted with specialist
attachments such as a C-Hook for the
Straddle Carrier for steel pipes and a
heavy duty fork attachment for loading
and unloading blocks of marble
“We first became aware of Combilift
at a trade fair and realised that the
ability to source such a wide range
of customised handling equipment
from one single supplier would be a
great advantage,” said Ms. Nedu. “The
company uses common components
on a lot of its models which simplifies
maintenance for example, and the high
level of cooperation between the two
companies means that we can offer the
best quality service for our customers’
individual needs.”
