Portuguese move for Axolift

Italian low-level aerial lift manufacturer Axolift has appointed Equipleva as a dealer for Portugal.

Based north of Porto in northwest Portugal, Equipleva currently sells aluminium steps, ladders, and scaffold towers. It has now moved into the aerial work platform market with the Axio low-level range of work platforms, including self-propelled mast lifts, and scissor lifts - both push-around and self-propelled. The first 10ft P300 scissor lift has already been sold to Santa Maria Airport in the Azores.

In addition, Equipleva’s sister company, Rentacesso, which runs a scaffold tower rental operation from locations in Porto, Lisbon and in the Algarve, will now add Axolift platforms to its fleet.

Equipleva chief executive Rui Pinto said: “We are extremely pleased with the cooperation with Gromet/Axolift. As a specialist in safe and ergonomic solutions for both access equipment and logistics, these products perfectly match our focus on quality and safety.”

Axolift chief executive, Massimo Grossele added: “We are very pleased with this new partnership, which is part of our strategy to be represented throughout Europe. Equipleva and Rentacesso are two leading players in the Portuguese market, with a strong focus on quality products and safety.”
