Socage’s constant endeavor to be present worldwide, to understand the needs of potential customers and to fully satisfy them, continues. In this sense, Socage, a world-leading manufacturer of aerial work platforms, is pleased to announce the opening of its new branch in North America. Based in New Hampshire (NH), Socage North America joins the company’s global network, which is already active in Europe, Asia, and other strategic regions, further strengthening its international presence.
This strategic expansion is aligned with the specific requirements of the American market and aims to offer a range of models specifically designed for professionals in the United States and Canada.
The branch will work with a network of local distributors to ensure comprehensive coverage of the territory and offer highly efficient customer service, supported by impeccable after-sales support. “We are pleased to announce the launch of Socage North America,” said Fiorenzo Flisi.
“The American market is among the most dynamic and competitive in the world, and we are confident that our experience and commitment to excellence will enable us to offer our customers unique added value.”
The Socage North America team, led by General Manager David Gouldsbrough, will also develop a comprehensive support program in collaboration with the new distributors, ensuring rapid and qualified assistance to customers throughout the United States. With a focus on reliability, safety, and innovation, Socage aims to bring the same quality to North America that has made the company a leading brand in Europe and worldwide.
Among the available models are the Raptor tracked aerial platforms and the truck-mounted models, in particular the ForSte series 92 DA, 105 DJ, and 120 DJ, which are known for their ability to operate in difficult conditions while providing high safety and excellent performance even in the most demanding environments.
Socage North America’s commitment to the industry
Socage North America is committed to building strong relationships with distributors and industry stakeholders, creating a network based on trust, competence, and responsiveness. The new support program is designed to optimize maintenance operations, reduce machine downtime, and improve fleet operational efficiency.
With this expansion, Socage once again reaffirms its global vision and continuous commitment to innovation in the field of aerial work platforms, positioning itself as a strategic partner for North American companies.
Socage at TCI EXPO: Speed and ease of use with the new Raptor series
The new team’s first appearance will be at the TCI EXPO, which takes place from November 7 to 9 in Baltimore. Since its first edition in 1990, this event has specialized in companies involved in tree care, equipment, and products for industry professionals.
Today, the Tree Care Industry Association (TCIA) is an industry association that unites 2,400 companies and over 14,000 professionals worldwide.
At our booth (1809) with over 800 square feet, you will find the Raptor 35S (115S for the American market), the top model in Socage’s Raptor series, which can reach a working height of up to 35 meters with a lateral reach of 21 meters. The Raptor 35S is the ideal solution for the most demanding challenges when working at great heights.
The TCI EXPO will also be the “launchpad” for the new and powerful Raptor 24S (80S for the American market), a high-quality compact tracked aerial platform that is ideal for demanding professionals and rental companies looking for reliable solutions even in hard-to-reach locations. This model is characterized by its light weight, very compact size, and fixed stabilizers, making it the simplest and most unique in its class. The RAPTOR 24S can be equipped with the Raptor Stab option, a kit of four extensions that further lifts the platform off the ground. This option makes it possible to master new challenges with steeper inclines and larger obstacles. In addition, it facilitates loading and unloading the platform on any trailer.
These are just some of the new products that we will be presenting in Baltimore. Visit us at booth 1809! It’s not a spider device, it’s a Raptor!
