Specialized Rigging for Your Most Critical Assets
Heavy Rigging. Careful Planning. Accountable Execution.
Bormann plans, rigs, and moves equipment ranging from precision instruments to major production machinery. Our material-handling fleet includes compact electric lifts, reach trucks, walkie stackers, boxcar forklifts, and counterbalance units with rated capacities from 2,000 to 20,000 pounds. Hydraulic gantries, jacks, chain falls, skates, rollers, cribbing, load-control gear, and specialized transport equipment extend that capability; qualified crane and specialty partners are integrated when the documented scope calls for them. For more than a century, Bormann has combined hands-on rigging experience with disciplined planning to protect high-value equipment through demanding moves.
