Ahern Australia to distribute Bluelift

Ruthmann Italia has appointed Ahern Australia as the exclusive distributor for its Bluelift tracked spider lift range.

The agreement is effective immediately, with Ahern Australia selling the products under the Ruthmann Bluelift brand, and provide spare parts and technical support through its existing network of field service engineers, which have already been factory trained. Ruthmann truck mounted lifts are handled by local manufacturer Nifty-Lift.

Managing director of Ahern Australia Glenn Martin said: “There is strong demand for tracked spider lifts in this market, and they are a complementary product to the Snorkel and Xtreme Manufacturing lines that we already offer to our customer base. This partnership not only strengthens our single-source offering to our existing customers but will also help us to unlock additional market opportunities.”

“Ruthmann Bluelift products are already proven in Australia and are well regarded for quality and reliability. They offer a range of high performance lithium & hybrid machines, which is an area of increasing importance in Australia as the industry seeks lower emission equipment solutions.”

Gianpiero Marti, sales director of Ruthmann Italia added: “We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with Ahern Australia, who are a highly professional sales and service organisation in this key territory. Ahern Australia operates from four branches in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane, and is backed by a well-established field sales and service team, delivering nationwide coverage. This is important to us as a manufacturer, as we know that Ahern Australia will be able to effectively service all new and existing customers, regardless of their location.”

The move follows the recent appointment of sister company Snorkel UK as the Bluelift distributor in the UK. See Blulift appoints Snorkel UK
