Rapid response gantry

Responding to customer demand, portable lifting specialist REID Lifting recently launched a new portable gantry system, the Porta- Gantry Rapide, rated WLL 500kg goods lifting with EN795 personnel lifting capability.

Capable of multiple configurations, the Rapide is rapidly deployed for use, by one person, in just a minute.

Designed as a single piece, lightweight, portable unit, the Rapide is easily transported within manual handling guidelines and retains all the safety factors that REID is famous for.

Featuring simple innovative assembly, it can be stowed in most service vans.

The Rapide, with EN795-Class B capability for up to three people, is reported to be ideal for personnel lifting, confined space and work at height applications, as well as general lifting applications.

"Our mantra is 'lightweight portable and safe' - and this new product ticks all those boxes which are so vital to our customers," says REID's sales and marketing director, Phil Ellis.
