Waukesha, WI - Wildeck, Inc. - Material handling equipment manufacturer, Wildeck, Inc., unveiled an impressive array of innovative products and custom design capabilities in Booth 1547 - one of its largest ever exhibits - at ProMat 2011, an MHIA International Expo.

"We are extremely excited to be among the largest exhibitors at ProMat - March 21 to 24 at McCormick Place in Chicago," stated Hubert Schlegel, Director of Marketing for Wildeck. "As the economy continues to rebound, we believe that customers will prefer to work with quality-focused U.S. manufacturers that have extensive design capabilities - like Wildeck - to meet their unique requirements for industrial work platforms, safe and reliable material lifts, and performance-proven safety guarding products. In partnership with our nationwide network of material handling dealers and strategic systems integrators, we remain committed to helping customers improve supply chain operations - making them safer, more efficient, and more profitable."
