About Waltco Liftgates
Waltco started in Gardena, California in 1954. Their specialty was manufacturing parts for the aerospace industry until a major customer requested a liftgate. Once their initial liftgate proved itself to be a success, the rest was history. Waltco became one of the largest hydraulic lift manufacturers in the United States by the mid-1980s.
Currently, this brand is one of several in a portfolio owned by Hiab, which is a leading provider of load handling equipment on a global scale. A connection to a global partner with such comprehensive expertise in the trucking and transportation industries is one of the things that makes Waltco so special. The materials and processes that go into these products are designed using a massive pool of knowledge.
While Waltco liftgates are designed and built right here in the United States, there are three ZEPRO liftgate models available as an extension of their offering. Those models were designed and produced in Sweden by some of the world’s greatest liftgate designers. Waltco liftgates are a terrific option for anyone who wants to increase the efficiency of their truck or trucks by working with one of the most reliable companies in the world.
