About CHENLIFT
Aerial Work Platform Manufacturer
Since 2001
CHENLIFT (Suzhou) Machinery Co., Ltd. is a CE-certified manufacturer of aerial work platforms — scissor lifts, vertical mast lifts, boom lifts, lift tables and loading dock equipment — exported to 80+ countries from our 15,000 m² Suzhou factory.
Who We Are
An Aerial Work Platform Manufacturer
Built on Precision
CHENLIFT (Suzhou) Machinery Co., Ltd. was founded in 2001 with a single mandate: design and manufacture aerial work platforms and hydraulic lifting equipment that performs reliably under real-world industrial conditions.
Since starting export business in 2013, our international team has worked closely with distributors, rental companies, contractors, and industrial facilities across Europe, the Americas, Southeast Asia, Australia, and the Middle East. This market experience helps us understand how access equipment is specified, delivered, supported, and used in different countries.
Our product catalogue covers scissor lifts, vertical mast lifts, boom lifts, lift tables, and loading dock equipment — all supported by engineering, fabrication, quality control, and export documentation from our 15,000 m² Suzhou factory, just 25 minutes from Shanghai. Every product that leaves our factory carries CE marking, and our quality management system is certified to ISO 9001.
Our Foundation
What Drives
Every Decision
Four principles govern every engineering choice, every production run, and every customer interaction at CHENLIFT.
Safety First
Every platform is designed and tested to exceed the safety requirements set by CE and ISO standards. We build redundancy into structural welds, hydraulic circuits, and control systems so operators are protected even when unexpected loads occur.
Engineering Integrity
Our in-house R&D team rigorously validates designs through FEA simulation and physical load testing before any model enters mass production. We never cut corners on steel grade, hydraulic seal quality, or electrical component specifications.
Customer Partnership
We treat every order — from a single scissor lift to a fleet of custom aerial platforms — as the foundation of a long-term relationship. Our pre-sales engineers, multilingual support staff, and dedicated after-sales team stay with customers from specification to commissioning and beyond.
Continuous Improvement
We invest a meaningful share of annual revenue back into production equipment upgrades, R&D programmes, and workforce training. Our goal is to steadily push the performance-to-cost ratio of every product category we compete in.
Sustainable Manufacturing
CHENLIFT actively monitors its environmental footprint. We have progressively shifted our product portfolio toward electric and oil-free drive systems, including MD Series vertical mast lifts with Electric Lifting Push Rod technology for zero hydraulic oil in pharma, food-grade, cleanroom, and other oil-sensitive environments.
Transparent Communication
From lead time commitments to product specifications, we communicate honestly with distributors and end-users alike. Clear documentation, accurate technical datasheets, and responsive sales support are non-negotiable standards within our organisation.
Product Capability
Five Product Lines,
One Manufacturer
CHENLIFT’s engineering portfolio spans the full spectrum of hydraulic and electric access equipment. Our scissor lifts range from compact indoor models to heavy-duty outdoor platforms. Self-propelled vertical mast lifts and aluminium mast lifts support narrow-aisle indoor access. Articulating boom lifts cover 16–40 m working height, while telescopic boom lifts reach 16.7–48 m for outdoor construction and infrastructure work.
Our loading dock equipment covers dock levellers, mobile ramps, and boarding bridges for logistics and cold-storage operations. Stationary hydraulic lift tables handle material loads from light workshop use to heavy industrial applications up to 10 t.
Because design, fabrication, and quality assurance all happen under one roof — with 90% of components self-manufactured — we respond rapidly to custom specifications and OEM requirements. CE documentation packages are standard; documentation for other regulatory environments is available on request.
Our History
Milestones That
Shaped CHENLIFT
From manufacturing roots in Suzhou to a stronger global customer platform — the CHENLIFT story in brief.
CHENLIFT’s manufacturing system began in Suzhou, Jiangsu, with long-term focus on scissor lifts, loading dock equipment, and hydraulic lifting machinery for industrial applications.
CHENLIFT started developing export business and working with overseas distributors, learning how different markets specify access equipment, compliance documents, spare parts, and after-sales support.
The BESTMAX brand was developed to support self-propelled aerial work platforms and create clearer product coverage for international distributors and fleet customers.
The CHENLIFT brand became the main overseas-facing platform, bringing together distributor relationships, product application knowledge, export documentation, and multilingual customer support.
As export demand grew, CHENLIFT moved closer to Mantall to further strengthen engineering resources, manufacturing scale, and product coverage. This was a strategic upgrade to build a stronger platform for global customers.
CHENLIFT continues to present a wider access-equipment portfolio for global distributors, rental fleets, and industrial users, supported by CE documentation, export packaging, and coordinated manufacturing resources.
Global Presence
Trusted in
80+ Countries
CHENLIFT products are operating on construction sites, in warehouses, at airports, and in manufacturing plants from Western Europe to Southeast Asia, from Australia to Latin America. Our growing network of regional distributors provides local technical support, spare-parts stocking, and commissioning services so customers are never far from expert assistance.
We ship export orders with full commercial documentation — packing lists, bills of lading, certificates of origin, and CE declarations of conformity. Standard lead times for stock models are 7–30 days; custom orders are 45–60 days. All confirmed in writing before deposit.
