Businesses are increasingly seeking safer material handling solutions that improve ergonomics, reduce manual handling risks, and enhance workflow efficiency.
Whether lifting boxes in production, handling reels in packaging, positioning servers in data centres, or moving and turning drums in food and pharma, companies need reliable lifting solutions that improve both safety and efficiency.
That is where Hovmand stands out.
Hovmand designs and builds battery-operated lifting solutions on wheels - ergonomic lifters developed to help operators lift, move, turn, and position items safely and easily.
With more than 54,000 lifters delivered worldwide to various industries.
Why Choose a Lifter?
A lifter is often the right solution for handling tasks because it combines lifting and moving in one flexible and ergonomic solution.
Hovmand lifters are used for handling:
It makes it easier to move and lift higher and further
A Lifter Is Easy to Use
Hovmand lifters are designed for smooth, intuitive daily operations.
They require:
A Lifter Is cost-effective
Compared to larger material handling systems such as cranes, vacuum systems, elevators, and robots, lifters are a simple and highly cost-effective solution.
In addition, businesses implementing lifters in their workflows benefit from:
A Lifter Is Simple to Design
Every Hovmand lifting solution is based on modular components, making it possible to design the exact solution that fits specific operational needs.
This modular approach allows businesses to customise lifting solutions for different industries, handling tasks and work environments without compromising flexibility or efficiency.
With just three clicks, you can select the appropriate leg set, mast, lifting capacity, and tool for handling your product or load – and in both aluminium and stainless steel, depending on your hygiene requirements and with ATEX and ESD protection.
The lifters are tailor-made lifting solutions for every industry
Different tasks require different handling solutions. That is why every Hovmand lifting solution is tailored to specific operational needs using a modular approach based on both standard and specialised components.
If a company's surroundings or elements have special needs, the Hovmand engineers develop a customised tool, construction, or leg set to fit the surroundings and test it on site together with customers.
Hovmand lifting solutions are widely used across industries including:
Why Battery-Operated Lifters Are Replacing Manual Handling
More businesses are replacing manual handling processes with ergonomic lifting solutions as workplace safety regulations tighten and efficiency demands increase.
Compared to manual handling, battery-operated lifters offer major advantages:
Manual Handling Battery-Operated Lifters
High physical strain Ergonomic lifting support
Increased injury risk Improved operator safety
Inconsistent positioning Precise controlled handling
Slower workflows Faster and more efficient operations
Limited handling capacity Safe lifting of heavy items
Often requires multiple operators Frequently operated by one person
As industries continue to automate and optimise workflows, lifting solutions are becoming essential tools for safer and smarter operations.
The Hovmand expertise goes a long way back, as the company was founded in Denmark in 1972.
The company operates globally with headquarters and production facilities in Denmark alongside subsidiaries in:
