A YEAR after launching its SwiftLift division, handling machinery manufacturer Tong has launched a new website which will make it easier for potato growers and suppliers to access information about the mobile elevators, or order one.
The SwiftLift elevators are available in standard lengths ranging from 3m to 12m long, with two belt widths of 600mm and 900mm for conveying lines.
General Manager at Tong SwiftLift, Richard Knighton, said the first year of trading for its new SwiftLift division had exceeded expectations and there were plans to develop the elevating and conveying range, which have been manufactured in conjunction with Terry Johnson Ltd of Holbeach, this year.
“We’re very pleased with our first year’s progress, building on the solid foundations of Terry Johnson Ltd,” he said. “Demand, especially from export markets, has been strong, expanding the product’s reach through our existing distribution channels. The launch of our new website aligns with growing demand.”
