Over a century ago, two forward thinking roofers embarked on a journey of innovation and
engineering that
would redefine
the trade.

Today, we stand on the shoulders of these two pioneers, armed with cutting-edge CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and lean manufacturing technologies.

We have harnessed the power of fiberglass reinforced plastic's (FRP) to create a new era of equipment for transporting roofing and solar equipment on to rooftops - lifters that are not only lighter and stronger but also non-conductive and non-corrosive.

Our commitment to innovation is unwavering, and the result is a lifter that drives up productivity while driving down labor and installation costs by more than 50%. We are proud to carry on the legacy of these early visionaries and continue to shape the future with state-of-the-art solutions, German engineering and a 2 Year Manufactures Warranty.

In this video, we explore the 'Risk & Issues' and compare the efficiency of the
HERM Lifter to transport 5x solar panels (weight: 150kg/330lbs) on to, and across the rooftop to where the installation is to take place ...

OMG ... while a contractor/laborer only manages to transport just 1x solar panel
to the roof-edge! - to the awaiting 2nd contractor/laborer

In this video, we explore the application of a 'Portable Power Generator'
at a remote industrial site.

In this video, James explains and demonstrates the operating features and the
engineering behind the HERM Lifter (Mk2.4/2022)

In this video, James is showcasing the HERM Lifter (Mk2.7/2022)
