GlasLift arrives in America
Danish based glass handling equipment company HH-Intellitech is moving into the mainstream North American market as HH-Intellitech USA, a new business, based in Glen Ellyn, Illinois, headed by Alastair and Struan Robertson.
HH-Intellitech produces a range of self-propelled glass handlers which it markets under the GlasLift brand name ranging from the 250 to the 500/1100. The machines simplify and speed up the installation of large glass panels and other flat surfaced materials, such as granite, wood, plasterboard, steel and concrete.

The company also produces a product it calls the Gerenuk 500 (1100 in USA), a fully self-contained small telescopic boom and manipulator that can be fitted to a fork truck carriage or the boom nose of a crane.
The Robertsons have formed the new company to handle the sales and distribution efforts in the United States and Canada, and will import the GlasLift 770 with 350kg lift capacity, GlasLift 1100 and Gerenuk 1100 both of which can handle 500kg/ 1,100lbs, and are currently looking for dealers and sales representatives throughout the region.
