Informed by decades of experience
Named for Bob Norman, long-time Comtruk employee, automotive engineer, and the driving force behind the side lifter, the Norman side lifter was specifically designed to meet the material handling needs of Comtruk customers.
The result of Bob’s research and development, the Norman side lifter benefits from his mechanical innovation and decades of experience building products for Comtruk.
And now, scores of Bob’s side lifter have been fitted to vehicles across Australia.
Bob’s side lifter is changing the way work gets done and deserves all the attention and accolades it receives.
Innovative design
A series of patent applications are pending for the Norman side lifter material handling system, including the integrated track system in the deck of the bed allowing the lifter to be moved to various positions.
