Enerpac – a rich history in hydraulics

Worlifts is proud to offer and support Enerpac equipment, but did you realise that Enerpac has a rich history, going back to the Model T Ford?

Then named the "Hydraulic Tool Co.", it produced its first hydraulic jacks in the 1920s and then in the 1950s went on to create an industrial products division.

It was also at this time that it re-branded to "Enerpac"

Since then, it has continued to produce hydraulic tools, controlled force products and solutions for precise positioning of heavy loads which find applications is thousands of industries worldwide.

The company now has a worldwide presence, with facilities in the USA, The Netherlands, Span, the UK, India and China.
