RMPU Upper Column Lift
Heavy-duty upper column lift for van bodies
Power that never quits — built for South African work, not showroom floors.
Imported lifts breaking down when you need them most?
Losing weeks waiting for costly parts that never arrive?
Need a lift that fits your local body build — not a European template?
You keep South Africa’s freight moving — no excuses, no downtime.
The RMPU Upper Column Lift is built for fleet operators who demand reliability under pressure. Whether you’re running van bodies, high cubes, or custom builds, this lift delivers seamless vertical motion with dual-column strength and simple, foolproof controls. Designed and built locally, supported nationwide, it’s the lift that works as hard as you do — every day, every load, every shift.
Trade fragile imports for dependable vertical performance — engineered for South African roads, drivers, and realities.
The RMPU is built to handle the dust, impact, and heavy-duty cycles that stop imported lifts in their tracks. With fewer electronic failure points and a simple, proven hydraulic system, it’s easy to maintain anywhere, using locally available parts — no specialist tools, no waiting weeks for spares.
Our locally manufactured design means spares cost up to 73% less, and downtime drops by nearly half.
That’s where the real savings live — not in the purchase price, but in the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) over the lift’s lifespan. Many buyers focus on upfront cost — but the fleets that choose SWC know the truth: downtime, delays, and foreign parts are what drain profits.
An SWC lift doesn’t just move cargo — it moves your business forward. More uptime. Faster turnarounds. Lower running costs. A smarter investment that pays itself off fast — and keeps earning long after imports fail.
Support local. Save more. Stay moving.
Why buy complicated when simple works harder?
Built strong. Built local. Built to last — so you earn more from every lift.
Stop losing profit to downtime and overseas delays.
