Recent product launches highlight lifters purpose-built for cranes or hoists, eliminating the risks tied to forklifts and manual lifting.

RAAH's latest lifter design showcases enhanced load-testing protocols and alignment with industry safety standards.

Why It Matters: Safety & Operational Advantages

Eliminates Manual Handling Risks

Manual handling of full IBCs (typically 200–1,000 kg) causes musculoskeletal injuries and crush accidents. The IBC Lifter performs tasks via crane without direct contact, minimizing these hazards.

Enhances Efficiency & Control

Cranes lift and position IBCs swiftly and accurately, slashing load time, operator fatigue, and downtime.

Prevents Spills & Damage

Secure attachment prevents IBC tilt and sloshing, crucial when handling hazardous or sensitive materials.

Ensures Regulatory Compliance

By eliminating ad-hoc methods (like forklifts tilting IBCs), the lifter aligns with OSHA and NFPA safety protocols.

Designed for Heavy-Duty Use

Constructed from industrial-grade materials and tested for full loads, the IBC Lifter is tailored for long-term, demanding use.

Key Features & Specifications

Crane-compatible below-hook design: Eliminates need for rake forks or manual lift.

Multi-size compatibility: Suitable for standard IBC tote dimensions (~1,000 mm x 1,200 mm) and pallet base variations.

Load-rated & certified: Includes load testing to 125% working load and comes with documentation.

High-visibility safety finish: Enhances identification in dim or cluttered areas.

Common Industrial Use Cases

Chemical & Pharmaceutical Processing: Moving hazardous IBCs with minimal spill risk.

Food & Beverage Facilities: Transferring sanitized containers without contamination.

Warehousing & Logistics: Safe pallet lifting in cold stores or multi-tier racking.

Manufacturing Plants: Routing raw materials or recycling IBCs across production zones.

Offshore & Petrochemical Sites: Safe movement across cluttered or uneven surfaces.
