Hermans Heftrucks has announced the acquisition of Allift Michielsens, a move that strengthens its presence in the Port of Antwerp and broadens its offering in lifting and material handling solutions.
Allift Michielsens brings more than 50 years of experience in the material handling sector. By combining this long-standing expertise with Hermans Heftrucks’ operational scale, customers will benefit from a wider rental fleet, including additional aerial work platforms, telehandlers and forklifts, all readily available from a strategic base in the Antwerp port area.
Both companies also emphasize their shared family-driven values and commitment to quality and service as a key factor behind the deal. “The many years of experience of both companies and our shared quality standards make this an ideal match”, said Dennis Renders, CEO of Hermans Heftrucks.
