In 1998, two highly qualified engineers, with decades of experience between them, came up with the idea for a long-load materials handling solution. Their expertise, knowledge of the market, and practical experience led to the development of the Combilift, which has since become a global leader in the materials handling sector.
Martin McVicar and Robert Moffett were the aforementioned engineers whose innovative piece of technology can now be found in more than 75 countries around the world. The Combilift is an engine-powered, all-wheel-drive multidirectional forklift which is highly manoeuvrable, safe, cost-effective, and efficient. It fills a niche in the market for a versatile forklift which saves space and handles long loads in confined spaces. Combilift has ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems certification.
The business is based in Monaghan, Ireland, and since its inception more than 22,000 units have been sold. The concept of a truck that can change the direction of its wheels to move forwards, backwards, and side to side at just the touch of a button changed the face of the materials handling sector at an unmatched pace. Combilifts growth is supported by an international network of distributors in ever-expanding markets.
