Common types of warehouse lifting equipment include goods lifts, mezzanine lifts, scissor lift tables, stackers, mobile lifting equipment and bespoke lifting solutions. These types of lifting equipment are used to move goods between floors, raise heavy or awkward loads and position items at a safe, ergonomic working height.
Industrial lifting equipment helps reduce manual handling, improve workflow efficiency, and make better use of vertical space within a warehouse. The right solution depends on the weight of the load, lift height, frequency of use, and available floor space.
Unlike forklifts, most lifting equipment does not require certified operators. Equipment is designed with straightforward controls and built in safety features. Basic operator training and familiarization is still recommended to ensure safe use and compliance with workplace health and safety requirements.

Warehouse lifting equipment improves warehouse efficiency by reducing the time and effort required to move heavy or awkward loads. By replacing manual handling with lifting solutions, warehouse lifting equipment allows goods to be moved, lifted and positioned more quickly and consistently.
Industrial lifting equipment also helps streamline workflows by enabling faster movement of goods between floor levels, workstations and storage areas. This reduces bottlenecks, minimises downtime, and allows staff to focus on high-value tasks rather than physically demanding lifting.
In addition, lifting equipment improves ergonomics and safety, which can lead to fewer injuries and more reliable day-to-day operations. Over time, this contributes to improved productivity, better use of warehouse space and a more efficient working environment.

Yes, lifting equipment can be customised to suit specific warehouse requirements when standard equipment is not suitable. This may be due to limited space, unusual load sizes, specific lift heights, or the way gods need to be moved within the warehouse. If you have a unique challenge, ask about a bespoke lifting solution designed around your exact requirements.

When choosing warehouse lifting equipment, you should consider the weight of the load, the required lift height, how often the equipment will be used, and the available space within the warehouse. It is also important to think about how goods need to be moved and where the lifting will take place.
If you need to move goods between floors, a goods lift or mezzanine lift is often the most suitable solution. For moving goods around a warehouse, mobile lifting equipment such as a mobile scissor lift table or lifting trolley can provide flexibility. Where loads need to be lifted and lowered in a fixed location, a static scissor lift table is typically the most appropriate option.
