Cherry's Industrial
Personally helping to create productive, safer, and cleaner manufacturing plants.
Cherry's Industrial Equipment Corp. was founded in 1982 to market a NEW type of material handling equipment known as a "Pallet Inverter.
The Pallet Inverter was developed in the late 1970’s to turn pallet loads of product upside down to recover and replace broken bags of fertilizer, kitty litter, sugar, flour or any dry granular product.
As with any start up we quickly realized that we needed to broaden our customer base, thus began our personal yet methodical approach to solving pallet related applications problems that involved repetitive motion, back strain, fatigue, wrist injuries, strained muscles and subsequent workmen's compensation claims and lost man-hours.
Twenty Nine years later this niche product developed into a “must have” for material handlers. Our pallets Inverters touch products everyday from Campbell “Soup” to Paramount “Nuts”. Most pharmaceuticals, frozen foods, pet foods, snack, bakery, and grocery products ingredients are inverted sometime in the manufacturing process to transfer to a clean pallet for internal use. We turn over unusual items like ATM machines, car doors, coffee, cosmetics, countertops, electrical transformers, newspaper inserts, paint, printed signatures, lottery tickets, bathtubs, football fields, cheese and bottled wine. Today we design, engineer, manufacture and distribute (7) stock models, (15) Made to Order models, custom engineered and automated solutions to turn any load size, shape or weight.
