Our StoryTHE LORRY LOADER CONCEPT

The lorry loader concept has grown and changed dramatically since the first Hiab lorry cranes were imported into the UK in 1967.

In 1966 Ernie Wertheim, the sales director for George Cohan Machinery (part of the 600 group) saw a Hiab loader crane in a Swedish magazine and approached his board with the view to filling a gap in the UK market.

The board declined saying it was not a good idea and nobody would sacrifice 1 tonne in payload for a concept such as this.
