Algenmax is Austrian based company who specializes in the sustainable removal of algae from
building facades. To achieve high-quality results while minimizing environmental impact, the
company relies on a key piece of equipment: Leguan spider lifts. With 16 units currently in use, these
spider lifts have proven to be a perfect fit for the fleet – their agility, off-road capability, 22.5-meter
(74ft) working height, consistent user-friendly control system across all models, and low
environmental footprint set them apart from the competition.

“These lifts have become an integral part of our daily work”, says Alfred Kantor, CEO and Co-
Founder of Algenmax.
User-Friendly and Fast to Operate
One of the decisive factors in choosing Leguan lifts was their ease of use. Training new employees
takes only a few hours, and intuitive controls make the machines easy to learn, even for first-time
operators. This ensures fast onboarding and smooth integration into daily operations from day one.
“Basic training with the Leguan spider lift for new employees is straightforward, as all models share
the same user-friendly control system”, Kantor points out.
Leguan lifts are particularly known for their outstanding off-road performance. They operate reliably
on steep and uneven terrain – a critical advantage for projects located in residential areas where
access is often limited.

Despite their compact size, Leguan lifts offer impressive reach: a working height for 225 is up to 22.5
meters (74ft), with a total weight of 2920kg (6340lbs). They can be transported using standard
vehicles yet provide up to 2.5 meters (+8ft) more reach than a typical road-legal towable lift.
Customer Benefits and Excellent Value for Money

Many Algenmax projects take place in green spaces or near other delicate surfaces. Leguan lifts are
equipped with soft rubber tracks, which help minimize damage to lawns and landscaped areas.
“This not only preserves the site’s appearance but also delivers a tangible benefit for our clients:
projects completed with less disruption and lower restoration costs”, Kantor says.
In addition to performance and versatility, Leguan lifts offer an exceptional price-to-performance
ratio. Their combination of power, durability, and adaptability makes them a highly cost-effective
choice.

“It’s simply an awesome machine”, Kantor praises.
