Sydney-based distributor Adapt-A-Lift hosted an open day on Wednesday this week to showcase subsidiary Combilift Australia’s comprehensive range of forklift models.
Developed by Irish manufacturer Combilift a decade ago, the multi-directional forklifts have proved popular, with over 297 forklifts purchased or placed in long-term rental in the timber, steel, plastic pipe, plasterboard and window industries in Australia since their local launch six years ago.
Recently, Combilift Australia supplied a C4800L forklift to a leading steel company to support the new loading system at its premises.
"The company is continually expanding its product range into heavier gauge profiles, pack weights and longer lengths and was looking for a forklift that could lift these heavier and longer loads safely and efficiently," says Combilift Australia product specialist Rosie Greaney.
She tells Forkliftaction.com News that with over 17 models in its range, including multi-directional Combilifts, sideloaders and the stand-up side loader (GT) for very narrow aisles, Combilift Australia can provide anything from a 2.5 tonne unit up to a 14 tonne unit, producing at least one new unit a year with improved capacities and features built to customer needs.
The Combilift is an engine- or battery electric-powered multi-directional forklift designed primarily for handling long loads in confined areas. Suitable for use both inside and out, the machine can operate in aisles as narrow as two metres.
