Factory nears completion

29 September 2017

Combilift, manufacturer of 4-way forklifts and other innovative handling solutions, is set to double its output in the next few years as its new factory nears completion.

Combilift says €40 million has been invested in the new 46,000m² factory, which sits on a 40 hectare site and will be the largest single manufacturing plant under one roof in Ireland. 

Combilift’s first i.c. engine powered, all-wheel drive multidirectional forklift was produced in 1998 and the company has experienced rapid growth ever since. Products are now exported to more than 75 countries.

The new global HQ and production facility will include a dedicated R&D building and adjoining administrational offices and is based in Monaghan, Ireland, close to where Combilift was first established. Production of some model ranges such as the Straddle Carrier has already moved to the new site, which will be fully operational in the spring of 2018. The expansion will also create about 200 new jobs, mainly for skilled technicians and design engineers.
