DINO – Up to the job since 1974

Congratulations to the DINO MEWP, 50 years young! During the last decade, a lot has changed, but many things are still the same. Such as the customer centric mindset that always has been and still is at the core of everything we do. The whole DINO family of distributors, partners and customers is a tight-knit community sharing the same values where trust and responsibility are key.

We at Dinolift are so happy and proud to give our contribution to bringing everyone working at height safely home to their families after a day’s work. To add safety in the powered access workplace is a great purpose to work for and I am happy to be part of that with the DINO. Thank you everyone who has been part of our journey so far and continues to be up to the job together with Dinolift every single day.
