Makinex’s products can now be rented from 23 of Stephenson’s-Lowe’s rental locations in Canada

Makinex said this partnership comes on the back of its success with sales to rental companies in the Canadian market last year.

The company’s Jackhammer Trolley and Tile Smasher Head are now available to rent from 23 of Stephenson’s-Lowe’s rental locations, ranging from Alberta to Quebec. At least four further locations are expected to be added to that number by the end of 2019.

The company’s Jackhammer Trolley and Tile Smasher Head are used in conjunction with each other in the flooring industry for removal, demolition and surface preparation tasks.

According to Makinex, the products were designed to take a large part of the weight, vibration and impact of a jackhammer off of the operator in order to reduce labour time and operator fatigue.
