Pflow Industries, the Milwaukee Wisconsin-based leading manufacturer of vertical lift systems for a variety of industries has developed a new vertical vehicle display system, the “VDS” for automotive, motorcycle, marine and recreational vehicle dealers. The Pflow VDS is designed with the same technology that has been incorporated into over 14,000 lift systems across the US and Canada.? ?According to David Dux, Pflow Vice President of Sales and Marketing, “The introduction of our new vehicle display system represents our constant efforts to utilize our technology in other industries. This is our first effort in a vehicle display application and we think there will be a large market for it. The VDS will help vehicle dealers stand out from their competitors by showcasing their products in a way that gives them greater visibility in a unique and interesting traffic-building environment.”

The Pflow VDS can be constructed to hold three, four or five levels of vehicles. Each level has it’s own platform and vehicles can be loaded and unloaded in a simple drive-on, drive-off one-man operation. According to Dux, “The ease of operation gives dealers the ability to quickly rotate their display inventories any time they want which will save them time and manpower. Other manufacturers have developed vertical vehicle displays, but they require a separate elevator system that is not only costly, but takes much more time to load and unload. Our system is simpler to operate and does not require a separate elevator”. The Pflow VDS can be installed anywhere on dealership property and is designed to save valuable lot space which can be at a premium particularly in urban areas. Each unit is custom-designed by Pflow engineers and includes built-in safety features and every Pflow VDS also includes a limited warranty. Dux is excited about the new product’s versatility. “The VDS is an excellent way to display and sell any kind of vehicle. We can build them with platforms and weight capacities to fit everything from a smart car to a bus!” Founded in 1977, Pflow Industries is a leader in providing complete vertical lifting solutions to a wide range of industries with applications for interior and exterior mezzanines, balconies, and through floor. The company is the only company that guarantees code approvals in all 50 states.
