Material Handling for the Granite Industry

Today’s granite and marble showrooms are more interactive and efficient than ever. Distributors are optimizing space and enhancing safety through innovative solutions. The key? Versatile overhead crane systems.

Overhead Lifting Options:

  • Gantry Crane: Provides overhead lifting from a floor-based structure on wheels, perfect for flexible use across various areas.
  • Workstation Crane: Ideal for fixed areas, offering reliable overhead lifting for loads up to 2 tons.
  • Overhead Bridge Crane: Integrates with your building’s support structure for dedicated, robust overhead lifting.

Customized Solutions: Whether the building can support additional weight or not, CraneWerks offers freestanding or floor-mounted cranes tailored to your needs. We’ll collaborate to identify the best system for your workspace.

3 Reasons to Switch from Forklifts:

  1. Maximize Space: Forklifts need aisle space—overhead cranes free up valuable floor space, allowing for more inventory.
  2. Boost Efficiency: Forklifts require two operators; our crane systems enable single-operator control for easier material handling.
  3. Protect Your Materials: Forklifts can damage slabs—overhead cranes offer a safer, more balanced approach.
