Maxon

Ask any heavy-duty logistics company, and they’ll tell you that nothing is more important than efficiency. They are constantly looking for tools that can help them load and unload heavy cargo from their trucks quickly and in a way that shortens delivery times, improves productivity, and reduces operator fatigue and injury risk.

Vehicle operators and cargo handlers use liftgates to complete tasks in a safer and more efficient way. Today, liftgates are used by a wide variety of commercial industries and are well-known for their ability to make things go a little more smoothly. At Pacific Truck Colors, we install liftgates of all sizes on different trucks. We source most of this equipment from Maxon. With nearly 60 years of history behind them, we can always rest assured that they have the professional expertise to deliver high-quality products.

Maxon has been manufacturing liftgates and other light-duty applications since 1957. Beginning with their first Tuk-A-Way liftgate, they’ve worked tirelessly to make the life of transporters easier by creating innovative products that provide workhorse performance.

As a family-owned company, they understand how important it is for small businesses to have tools they can rely on and that can help them streamline their daily tasks.

Here’s a sneak peek at their website.

Since 1957, when Max Lugash invented the first Tuk-A-Way lift, we’ve been driven by innovation. This drive has led us to develop a leading suite of products to best meet a wide variety of needs.

From our direct-lift, low-maintenance Mighty Max liftgates for pickups and other light-duty applications, to the most capable and sophisticated column lift available on the market today—the BMR-A, our unique product line was developed with your needs in mind.

Incorporating advances such as MaxPro paint, the most durable finish available on a liftgate, true level ride mechanisms, automatic stowage functions, and hydraulic locks to protect the gate operator, Maxon lifts define the standard for the best gates in the world, regardless of the application.

Just by taking a quick look at their website, you can see that Maxon offers a wide selection of liftgates designed to improve efficiency and reduce time spent loading and unloading cargo.

Let’s have a look at some of the products they offer:

  • Light-duty liftgates: easy to use, safe, and cost-effective, they are the perfect choice for pickup trucks, cargo vans, services bodies and van bodies.
  • Railifts: due to their dock loading capability, railifts are an excellent option for bulk delivery.
  • Tuk-A-Way: one of the great things about the Tuk-A-Way is that the platform can be folded and stowed under the truck body when not needed.
  • Columnlift: durable, precise, and safe, the Columnlift can withstand gate impacts and deliver superior performance.
