Mobile column lifts boost wash bay operations
19 June 2019
Having used a set of Stertil Koni mobile column lifts for a number of years, Denbighshire County Council recently purchased a second set to support a new wash bay facility at its Kinmel Park depot in Bodelwyddan.

Each of the ST1075FSA columns provides a lifting capacity of 7.5t which means that, when used as a set of four, the combined capacity of 30t ensures complete safety when dealing with the largest and heaviest vehicles.
The range of vehicles lifted by the set of Stertil Koni wash bay columns include road sweepers and gritters, plus two- and three-axle refuse collection lorries weighing up to 26t.
“We find that the versatility of the lifts ensures excellent accessibility whilst steam cleaning vehicles without needing to climb up and down ramps,” says workshop manager, Mark Crompton. "That is a real health and safety benefit for our wash bay operatives.”
