Kito Crosby, a leading manufacturer of lifting and securement solutions, proudly announces the launch of the Kito standardized FER2 Food Grade Electric Chain Hoist.
In a strategic move to meet the growing demand for hygienic and reliable lifting solutions in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical environments, a new player has entered the arena: the standardized Kito FER2 Food Grade Electric Chain Hoist.
Engineered for purity, performance, and customization, the Kito FER2 hoist is now available in three standardized feature levels — Bronze, Silver, and Gold — offering manufacturers a clear path to compliance and operational excellence, each tailored to meet specific operational needs.
Hygiene Compliance
The FER2 hoist is built to thrive in environments where hygiene is non-negotiable. Its food-grade configuration includes:
- Epoxy-coated surfaces for enhanced corrosion resistance
- Stainless steel load hook (up to 2 tonnes)
- Stainless steel load chain (up to 800 kg)
- Nickel-plated chain stopper and spring
- Stainless steel limit plate and chain container
These features make the FER2 an ideal choice for operations aligned with HACCP principles, ensuring contamination risks are minimized while lifting performance remains uncompromised.
Modular by Design, Tailored by Need
Recognizing that no facilities are alike, the FER2 hoist is offered in three distinct packages:
- Bronze: Essential food-grade features for basic hygiene compliance
- Silver: Enhanced corrosion protection and stainless-steel components
- Gold: Premium configuration with maximum food-grade coverage and customization options
With load capacities reaching up to 5,000 kg, the FER2 range supports a wide spectrum of applications — from ingredient handling to packaging and logistics.
Industry Impact
The launch of the Kito FER2 hoist signals a shift toward smarter, more adaptable lifting solutions in regulated environments. “We’ve designed the FER2 to be more than just a hoist,” said Richard Berg, Product Manager EMEA. “It’s a platform for hygienic lifting that can be tailored to the specific needs of each operation — whether that’s a dairy plant, a pharmaceutical line, or a beverage filling facility.”
