The prestigious magazine Access International, part of the English group KHL, has published an article about Alba-Macrel Group last June 2024. This recognition is a testament to our commitment to innovation, quality, and safety in the construction sector, particularly in rack and pinion hoists.

The text highlights interesting topics such as new launches and trends in the industry. We are especially proud to be mentioned alongside our US distributor, Bee Access, for their outstanding work in promoting and distributing our construction hoists in this key market.

At Alba-Macrel Group, we continuously strive to exceed our customers’ expectations by offering optimal hoisting solutions that combine high technology with quality and safe design.

Here are some parts highlighted by Access International in its publication:

This year, Alba-Macrel has introduced the PT 2000 model to its ever-growing line of transport platforms and has provided details for its next PT model launch (…) with a load capacity up to 2000kg. It was originally designed for the American market in collaboration with US distributor, Bee Access,, to meet their clients’ needs for a larger cabin with higher load capacity. This model is designed for markets throughout the world and can reach heights of up to 250 m at a speed of 22 m/min. Furthermore, it can feature advanced remote-control technology for management and diagnostics, thanks to Alba Telematics – the company’s new monitoring system.

The company is now working on another model within the same family: the PT 650. This transport platform shares similarities with the smaller model in the range, the PT 450, such as the square tube mast, which is also compatible with other construction hoists and mast climbers from the Alba-Macrel catalogue.

Furthermore, adds Alba-Macrel Group is the growing emphasis on sustainability, with manufacturers incorporating eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient components into their designs. “Another important objective is reducing electrical consumption, leading to the design of increasingly lightweight equipment.” Asked how the design of modern buildings affects the design of hoist products, the company says modern architecture is playing a pivotal role. “The proliferation of skyscrapers and complex structures demands lifting systems capable of adapting to diverse construction requirements”.
