Industrial Furnace & Oven Moving Specialists Merritts regularly carry out work within the industrial furnace and ovens sector; successfully completing machinery transport and installation projects for furnace and oven manufacturers as well as companies that use heat treatment as part of their manufacturing processes. We have worked with manufacturers of aerospace and automotive parts, ceramics, brick, pharmaceutical and healthcare products, plastics, and food producers. Installing and removing industrial ovens, furnaces and kilns can often require working within confined spaces. Our specialist lifting equipment includes a modern fleet of electric and gas Versa-Lift fork lift trucks which are perfect when space is at a minimum. Merritts’ Versa-Lift fork trucks have unique componentry which enables them to perform tasks which would otherwise require larger, more expensive and cumbersome lifting equipment, therefore helping the customer save project time and money. The Versa-Lift is also designed specifically to fit into areas where access is limited. This could potentially be a huge cost saving to the customer as it means that doorways or wall apertures do not need to be altered, as could have been the case with less sophisticated lifting technology.
