PALFINGER AUSTRALIA is expanding its lifting solutions offering with the addition of BG Lift, providing Australian customers with access to an internationally recognised range of compact crawler cranes for specialised lifting applications.
Founded in Veneto, Italy, BG Lift brings more than 30 years of lifting industry expertise and has earned a strong reputation for designing and manufacturing innovative compact crawler cranes.
The BG Lift portfolio spans lifting capacities from 600 kg to 40 tonnes and includes both diesel and electric models, supporting a broad range of construction, infrastructure, industrial, glazing and specialised lifting applications.
The first BG Lift units are expected to arrive in Australia in late 2026.
As customer requirements continue to evolve across the construction, transport, infrastructure and industrial sectors, PALFINGER AUSTRALIA remains focused on delivering the right solution for every lifting challenge. The addition of BG Lift complements the company’s existing portfolio and introduces new options for customers working in environments where space, access and lifting complexity require more specialised equipment.
“The addition of BG Lift is an exciting step for PALFINGER AUSTRALIA. BG Lift has built a strong international reputation for developing compact crawler cranes that perform in challenging environments, and its range is a natural fit for the Australian market.
For our customers, this means greater choice when selecting equipment for specialised lifting applications, backed by the product knowledge, technical expertise and support they expect from PALFINGER AUSTRALIA. ”
Scott Patterson, General Manager, PALFINGER AUSTRALIA
From construction and glazing projects through to infrastructure works and industrial maintenance, many job sites require lifting equipment that can operate where traditional machines may not be suitable.
The BG Lift range provides additional flexibility for these applications, offering compact crawler crane solutions designed for precision, accessibility and performance in confined or challenging environments.
For PALFINGER AUSTRALIA customers, the addition of BG Lift means access to a broader selection of lifting equipment from a trusted provider with national reach and local expertise.
Customers will be supported through PALFINGER AUSTRALIA’s network of branches and service partners, with access to technical advice, product support, training, spare parts and aftersales service.
This local presence is a key part of PALFINGER AUSTRALIA’s service model, helping customers maintain equipment performance and confidence throughout the life of their investment.
“Our customers expect more than equipment. They expect practical advice, responsive support and people who understand their operating environment. Through our branch and service partner network, we can support customers locally while drawing on the capability of our national team. That combination is central to the value PALFINGER AUSTRALIA brings to the market.”
