Versalift UK Named Exclusive Bluelift Distributor for UK and Ireland

Versalift UK recently announced that it will assume exclusive representation of Bluelift, a premium brand of compact aerial lifts, in January 2023. As is the case with Versalift, Bluelift is a Time Manufacturing Company brand, having been acquired by Time when it acquired Ruthmann GmbH in 2020.

Bluelift Compact Aerials Solve Unique Access Challenges

Bluelift aerial lifts are the most compact aerials in their category, yet have a horizontal reach that exceeds 100 feet. Easily able to pass through public doorways, they can fit into public elevators, providing unique access to hard-to-reach interior spaces. Bluelift compact tracked aerial lifts come with a dual power source (lithium battery/combustion engine), solving the various challenges of indoor job sites.

Broader Range of Equipment & Service Choices

Earlier this year, Versalift UK was named exclusive distributor for Ruthmann, STEIGER® and Ecoline equipment brands in the UK and Ireland. Beginning on January 1st, 2023, Versalift UK will add Bluelift to its product and service options across the United Kingdom and Ireland. This duty is being assumed from the Ahern Group. Bluelift customers in the UK and Ireland will recognize the advantage that Versalift UK has in having a very strong network of service providers.

Expanding, Strengthening and Integrating Brands

Vertikal, a leading European access equipment online magazine, recently published an article on the addition of Bluelift to Versalift UK. The article quoted a European Versalift spokesperson, “We have the vision to further expand and strengthen the integration between all Time Manufacturing group companies. Versalift UK customers will immediately benefit by having more options for access lifts, and Bluelift customers will benefit from the industry leading support.”
