A. Vacuum Liters for Oil & Gas Industry :

Vacuworx started with the goal of providing a better material handling solution for the oil and gas industry. Vacuum lifting offers pipe liners a safe and more efficient way to load, unload, stage and place pipe. In addition, the HDD Pipe Lifting System is designed to lift drill stem and position it directly into the rig.


B. Vacuum Liters for Water and Sewer :

Vacuum lifting provides a versatile and safe way to lift steel, ductile, poly and concrete pipe, as well as culverts, lids and other precast concrete for the water and sewer industry. Using the same lifter, contractors can easily switch vacuum pads to accommodate a wide variety of material types and sizes.


C. Vacuum Liters for Highway and Heavy Construction:

Road and bridge construction projects can be particularly challenging, especially when space is limited, roadways are crowded and time is short. Vacuworx offers solutions to handle precast concrete road barriers and slabs, remove deteriorated concrete and place steel road plate safely and efficiently.

D. Vacuum Liters for Concrete Construction:
