CATHAYLIFT, a leading innovator in aerial work platforms, has expanded its global reach with its first sale of the Telescopic JIB Mast Vertical Lift in Portugal. The customer, Mr. João Silva, owner of Silva Construções, a prominent construction and maintenance company based in Lisbon, recently purchased the machine to enhance efficiency and safety in high-altitude operations.
Mr. Silva's company specializes in building maintenance, electrical installations, and warehouse operations, often requiring access to tight spaces and elevated work areas. After extensive research, he chose CATHAYLIFT's Telescopic JIB Mast Vertical Lift for its compact design, impressive lifting capacity, and advanced safety features.
"We needed a machine that could navigate narrow corridors, fit into elevators, and still provide a stable platform for our workers," said Mr. Silva. "CATHAYLIFT's Telescopic JIB Mast Vertical Lift stood out because of its 1m width, 345° turntable rotation, and 200kg load capacity-allowing two technicians to work simultaneously. It has significantly improved our productivity."
Mr. Silva highlighted several aspects of the JIB Mast Vertical Lift that have made a difference in his daily operations:
Space Efficiency & Maneuverability – The machine's compact dimensions (1m wide, 1.99m tall) allow it to pass through tight spaces, including standard elevators and warehouse aisles, without disassembly.
Safety & Reliability – The oil pipe explosion-proof system and emergency descent button ensure worker safety, while the overload sensor prevents accidents due to excessive weight.
Ease of Use – The lower control panel and mechanical hydraulic handle enable smooth operation, even in power-restricted environments.
Low Maintenance & Durability – The maintenance-free battery and swing-off protective covers reduce downtime and simplify inspections.
*"The AC drive wheels provide strong, bump-free movement, and the 130° adjustable auxiliary arm helps us reach difficult angles without repositioning the machine constantly,"* Mr. Silva added. "It's a game-changer for our projects."
This sale marks an important milestone for CATHAYLIFT as it continues to grow in the European market. The company's commitment to safety, innovation, and customer satisfaction has resonated with businesses looking for reliable aerial work solutions.
"We are thrilled to have our first customer in Portugal," said CATHAYLIFT's International Sales Director. "Mr. Silva's feedback confirms that our Telescopic JIB Mast Vertical Lift is ideal for industries requiring precision, safety, and adaptability. We look forward to serving more clients across Europe."
With successful deployments in Portugal, CATHAYLIFT aims to expand further into Spain, France, and Germany, offering its high-performance lifts to construction, warehousing, and facility management sectors.
For Mr. Silva and his team, the investment has already paid off. "Since using this machine, we've completed projects faster and with greater safety. CATHAYLIFT delivered exactly what we needed-a powerful, compact, and reliable lift."
