Unique requirements for safety, certification, cleanliness, and consistent production processes make selecting the right hoist specifications for chemical and pharmaceutical applications critically important. Doing so ensures a smart long-term investment while minimizing operational risks.

For this reason, many companies rely on our decades of experience in developing and supplying the right hoist solutions.

Challenges

In many industries, challenging environmental conditions are part of daily operations: explosive vapors or dust, high humidity, restricted headroom, tight workspaces, and frequent washdowns with aggressive cleaning agents all call for specialized lifting solutions.

Our systems enable the safe movement of bulk materials such as big bags, drums, or barrels — always with a safe distance between operator and load. At the same time, they reliably prevent contamination of products from lubricants, exhaust air, corrosion, or coating defects.

Even during routine maintenance on processing machinery or auxiliary equipment — often in confined spaces — our hoists ensure controlled, safe, and efficient operations. The result: maximum workplace safety, highest product quality, and minimal downtime — even under the most extreme conditions.

Advantages & Benefits

Our pneumatic and hydraulic hoists, trolleys, and crane systems feature sealed, purely mechanical designs with materials (e.g., stainless steel, galvanization, specialty coatings) specifically chosen for use in high-humidity, high-pressure washdown, and highly corrosive environments.

Certification for hazardous areas and spark resistance ensures the equipment is tailored for safe operation in critical applications. Pneumatic and hydraulic hoists are generally more reliable and cost-efficient than comparable electric devices, easier to install, and more flexible to use. Installing the air supply is quick and straightforward using standard tools.

Multiple configurations based on the same hoist drive enable a variety of applications — including low-headroom setups, confined-space lifting, and big bag handling — while maintaining component commonality for simplified maintenance and reduced spare parts costs.
