Socage will be showing its restyled and renamed Forste range of platforms at SAIE to test the market's response. The Forste range represents two things to Socage: continuing innovation and a commitment to the Forste Association, a heart disease charity.

You can see the telescopic platform T318 Forste, double articulated platform DA324 Forste and articulated platform A314 Forste, mounted on a pick-up truck at SAIE.

The management of Socage has become an official sponsor of Forste - a non-profit making association, which carries out research into congenital heart diseases - following the tragic death of Stefano Flisi, the 15 year old son of Socage's chief executive officer Fiorenzo Flisi. Socage will help develop and promote the association and the Forste Association will be participating at SAIE with its own stand, where it will be possible to become a member and make a donation.
