Lifting operations are about to become significantly safer across India and the GCC, as DAL-LAGO is now distributing Verton's world-first lifting and orientation technology across these regions. Verton's wireless lifting beams remotely orientate suspended loads without the need for taglines, using gyroscopes and sophisticated control systems, removing the need for personnel near or under loads.

For DAL-LAGO, a leading global precast company bringing Industrialization of Construction with their parent company DLC Consulting S.p.A since 1974, this means they can offer their lifting industry customers safer, faster, and smarter solutions.

Liyakat Ali
DAL-LAGO Director and Head of International Market Operations in Australia, India, and the GCC, Liyakat Ali Syedstrong> called it the most revolutionary product in the history of lifting operations. He added, "The benefit of being an authorized Verton Distributor is that we can reach out to many clients who are in different industries. We are excited to be representing Verton's unique and innovative products which create the safest lifting operations available, while also offering our clients our patent fastest precast solutions, which they might need for their construction projects too."
Trevor Bourne
Verton's MD, Trevor Bourne, informed that this distribution agreement with DAL-LAGO will mean safer, more efficient work for countless construction projects. He said, "The reach that our technology will now have, thanks to DAL-LAGO, is exciting, as the safety benefits they deliver are sorely needed in the construction industry. Verton's range of lifting solutions uses gyroscopes and sophisticated control systems that make even the most difficult job safer, without the need for personnel near or under loads.

Bourne added, "From a productivity and efficiency perspective, the load arrives at the destination in the right orientation due to the control system onboard our equipment while controlling the load via our remote control, even in the event of sudden wind gusts. Coupled with our smart tech that captures and analyses lifting operation data to identify opportunities for improvement, our solutions are designed to make lifting operations better for everyone."

The potential for the DAL-LAGO/Verton partnership is huge. For example, any wind turbine company that would need Verton lifting solutions to safely and more efficiently install towers in India can easily also consult with DAL-LAGO about building their wind towers in precast concrete.

"While DAL-LAGO's philosophy is to minimize the need for raw material especially concrete in any building structure and complete the building structure faster with its patent dry connections, VERTON's lifting solution is an absolute complement to the whole production and erection system. It's an elegant collaboration," said Syed.

The precast construction industry will hugely benefit from Verton equipment as it allows faster erection of panels without worrying about the safety of workers on site. It is expected that the Verton range of smart and safe lifting and orientation solutions will make an impact across a wide range of industries in India and the GCC, including oil and gas, infrastructure, construction, renewables, off-shore and on-shore mining, and much more.
