Alimak specialises in rack and pinion-driven lifts for industrial locations and has more than 40 years' experience in oil & gas applications. 

Alimak lifts, which are available in explosion protected designs, provide reliable and convenient access in oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, petrochemical plants and LNG storage tanks. The modular-built lifts are adaptable in size and capacity and do not need a machine room or lift shaft. 

Alimak provides a total lift package from concept design and manufacturing to comprehensive through-life after-sales support globally. 

Many field studies and research reports have shown that the installation and usage of Alimak rack & pinion lifts are extremely profitable. Even at very low lifting heights, return on investment in industrial lifts is short. This is especially true in hot or cold climates where climbing stairs is difficult.

Alimak also supports in the construction and maintenance of onshore oil and gas facilities with temporary and permanent vertical access solutions
