  • Fast lifting and lowering every time

  • Hydraulic technology

  • Synchronization for safety and convenience

“When you consider our entire portfolio of products, Stertil-Koni has the broadest range of ALI (Automotive Lift Institute) certified heavy duty vehicle lifts in the industry," DellAmore said. "With that approach, we can offer our customers powerful, third-party watchdog-vetted lifting systems that meet all our customers’ requirements — from a single, established, and focused provider. That’s special and that’s Stertil-Koni.”
