The additional space also allows for an easier flow through of machines, which increases our efficiency.”

The new site in Eastern Creek, New South Wales, can store all the machines indoors and is equipped with an ecofriendly wash bay that uses recycled water. Also the new space incorporates the 5S system found in all Skyjack locations, designed to reduce waste and optimize productivity through maintaining an orderly workplace and using visual cues to achieve consistent results.

“It’s a new building created specifically for Skyjack and our equipment,” Cranmer added. “We couldn’t be happier with the final product.”
