Dutch process technology specialist Dinnissen has introduced a new stainless steel lift system designed to improve the safe and efficient handling of pallets, intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), and flexible intermediate bulk containers (FIBCs) in industrial production environments.

Originally developed in response to a customer project in the US dietary supplements sector, the lift was designed to address specific safety concerns. The project required pallets of raw materials to be raised to an 8-metre height, creating significant manual handling risks. When no suitable fully stainless steel, hygienic lift was available on the market, Dinnissen developed its own solution.

Manufactured entirely from stainless steel, the lift meets strict hygiene standards required in the food, nutrition, and pharmaceutical industries. Its design avoids the use of hydraulics, instead utilising a reliable mechanical belt drive to reduce contamination risk and improve durability.

The lift is suitable for a wide range of products, including pallets, drums, big bags, and sack goods. It incorporates an integrated control system, fall protection, LOTO (Lock Out Tag Out) provisions, and complies with CE certification and EN 81-30:2010 safety standards.

Each lift is fully customised to meet client-specific requirements, including height, lifting capacity (ranging from 500 to 2000 kg), and input/output configuration. Dinnissen reports that several units have already been delivered to customers worldwide, with further systems currently in production.

By combining hygiene, safety, and operational efficiency, Dinnissen’s new stainless steel lift offers a practical solution for manufacturers seeking to optimise material handling within sensitive production environments.
