Drum Lifting Equipment

Drum lifting equipment for loading drums on and off pallets and bunds. Our drum lifters allow operators to safely and efficiently lift and lower drums into position.

Ourdrum lifting equipment

We offer one of the widest ranges of drum lifting equipment on the market, allowing operators to load and unload drums from all types of pallets. A pallet can be straddled with legs passing around each side, approached from the corner, or loaded using a counterbalanced machine; each lifter has its unique features and benefits.

We design, construct, and rigorously test all of our drum lifting equipment in our UK-based manufacturing facility to ensure they are of the highest quality. If you need some advice on which lifter would be the best for your application, please get in touch.
