UpRight announced that United Rentals has purchased a fleet of its TM12 model, a mast lift that provides 18 feet of work height and a 500 pound capacity. The 80 units will be deployed at United Rentals' centers across the New England region.

The TM12 units were built at UpRight's facility in Fresno, CA where the MX19 micro-scissor lift is also produced. The California facility presently manufactures around 150 machines per month, with plans to further expand production during the course of 2007 and 2008.
