The beginning

Almac Srl is founded by Pietro Agosto Del Forte and Andrea Artoni to bring to life an idea: the creation, production and distribution of a completely new, innovative range of self-propelled tracked aerial platforms.

Thanks to the know-how and experience of its founders, Almac brings a series of innovations and diversification to the more traditional aerial platform industry.

January 2014

The first models

Initially based in Gualtieri (RE), Almac develops its first aerial platform prototype and not long after releases its first crawler scissor lift models.

The BIBI 410/510 with four and respectively five metre working height and equipped with an extendable undercarriage are the first models, followed by the six metre working height platform with the lateral levelling system able to overcome minor slopes.

August 2014

The new seat

Almac moves into its new head offices in Viadana, Mantua. Measuring 2500 sqm, it is better equipped to meet the demands for space and the increasingly industrialised production of Almac tracked aerial platforms following the steady national and international sales growth.

2015

The first patent

Almac creates the innovative BI-LEVELLING technology, a system that allows for compensation on steep lateral and longitudinal slopes.

An international patent is immediately requested and the system is installed on the six-metre machine, thus creating the first BL crawler scissor lift: the BIBI 630-BL.

May 2015

The BL Line – the first bi-levelling scissor lift

Almac launches the BIBI 850-BL crawler scissor lift, an eight-metre working height model.

With a BI-LEVELLING undercarriage able to overcome 20° longitudinal slopes and 16° lateral slopes, with automatic levelling system.
