United Forklift and Access Solutions has received its 1000th Haulotte machine – an Optimum 8 AC electric scissor lift at its Perth office.

The company is one of Australia’s largest privately owned forklift and access equipment companies with operations in all states, including retail sales of Haulotte machines.

Its relationship with Haulotte started in 2010 with the delivery of a HA120PX rough terrain boom. Since then, United Equipment’s Haulotte range has expanded to cover the full spectrum of scissor lifts, boom lifts and telehandlers.

Keith Clarke, managing director of Haulotte Australia, said, “United is a sleeping giant. Now with over 1000 Haulotte machines in its rental fleet, United is a big business.”

The company has more than 100 field service vans Australia-wide with accredited operating training programmes, along with the forklift sales and service segment.

United general manager Trent Osborne said, “The handover to us of this latest Haulotte machine is part of the continual process of updating our fleet with new and productive equipment that keeps us at the global forefront of safety and efficiency innovations in our industry.

“We will continue to work extensively in partnership with them to provide input for products that deliver optimum performance for tough Australian conditions, including strength, durability and ergonomic design.”
