Combilift secures double win
Combilift, a provider of material handling solutions, has achieved dual recognition at this year’s UK Engineering & Manufacturing Awards 2024. The ‘design team of the year’ award was presented to Combilift’s heavy equipment team for its exceptional work on the groundbreaking twelve-wheel “Combi-LC Blade” (pictured), the jury said.
This machine has been specifically engineered to handle offshore wind turbine blades, which can reach up to 115 m in length and weigh as much as 70 t. The design significantly enhances the ability to transport these large, non-uniform loads safely and efficiently from manufacturing sites to storage and deployment locations.
In addition, Combilift’s co-founder and CEO, Martin McVicar, received the coveted ‘industry leader award’, sponsored by Menzies. (cj)
