PETec Table Lift Systems

What PETec Table Lift Systems does

PETec GmbH (operating as PETec Table Lift Systems) is a German manufacturer of professionally designed, height-adjustable table systems and lifting equipment, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Meschede, Germany. The company designs, develops, manufactures, and sells work tables, assembly tables, and welding tables built around a patented mechanical spindle-chain drive (Kettenantrieb) that replaces traditional hydraulic actuation, with load capacities spanning 100 kg to 12,000 kg. Its product portfolio is organized into core lines — PETec Basic, Advanced, and Professional — supplemented by Ecoline, Mono, Lifte, scissor lift tables, support stands, welding manipulators, special work tables, and a mobile workshop trolley, all configured and sold primarily through a direct e-commerce storefront with an integrated online product configurator.

The business operates a hybrid direct-to-consumer and direct-to-business model: customers self-configure standard or customized tables online, request quotes for special solutions from uploaded drawings or CAD files, and engage a small inside-sales team (Roman Jenke, Vertrieb) for complex industrial orders. Revenue comes from one-time hardware sales, bespoke manufacturing projects, and accessories/spare parts, with disclosed price points ranging from approximately €1,370 for entry-level Basic models to €11,250+ for heavy-duty Professional units, and quote-based pricing for custom solutions. Customer segments are deliberately horizontal — industrial manufacturing, metalworking and welding, trade and craft, electrical and control-panel manufacturing, vocational education, healthcare/non-profit, textile, automotive, and IT — served across Germany, 27 European countries, and the US via direct digital channels and trade-show presence. The company is privately held by managing directors Christian Plett and Florian Eickelmann, with no institutional capital, M&A, or partnership activity disclosed in the available materials.

Regional players

• Wolfcraft GmbH: Wolfcraft is a German manufacturer of DIY and trade tools, workbenches, and sawhorse systems sold primarily across Europe. It overlaps with PETec's Ecoline and Basic product positioning for the trade and SMB customer segment, but its distribution is consumer/trade-channel rather than direct industrial.

Others

• Denios SE: Denios is a German manufacturer of environmental, safety, and industrial workplace equipment, including hazardous-materials workstations and welding/grinding enclosures. It is adjacent to PETec's Schleiftisch (grinding table with extraction) line and serves overlapping industrial buyer profiles in DACH.
• Kesseböhmer GmbH: Kesseböhmer is a German industrial fittings and ergonomic solutions manufacturer with products spanning lifting columns, height-adjustable frame systems, and trade-fair/machine components. It is thematically adjacent to PETec, supplying linear motion and lifting components that compete at the subsystem level.

Direct peers

• Bott GmbH & Co. KG: Bott is a German manufacturer of vehicle outfitter systems, industrial workstations, and configurable workbenches. It is a direct peer because it sells configurable industrial workstations with height-adjustable options into the same trade, manufacturing, and service-bay customers as PETec.
• Treston: Treston is a Finnish manufacturer of modular industrial workstations, workbenches, and material handling solutions with a strong European footprint. It is a direct peer because it offers height-adjustable industrial tables and ergonomic workstations serving the same manufacturing, electronics, and logistics buyers as PETec.
• Bishamon Industries: Bishamon is a US-headquartered manufacturer of scissor lift tables, positioners, and mobile lifting equipment with a European distribution footprint. It is a direct peer for PETec's lifting tables and scissor lift table lines, addressing the same industrial ergonomics and material-positioning applications.
• item Industrietechnik GmbH: item is a German manufacturer of modular aluminum profile systems used to build industrial workstations, machine frames, and ergonomic workbenches. It is a direct peer in the configurable industrial workstation market and overlaps with PETec on height-adjustable assembly and welding tables.
• Edmolift AB: Edmolift is a Swedish manufacturer of scissor lift tables, mobile lifts, and pallet positioners used in industrial material handling. It is a direct peer specifically for PETec's Scherenhubtische (scissor lift) and Mobillift product lines, which use a competing mechanical approach to the same use cases.
• LISTA (a brand of Hoffmann Group): LISTA is a Swiss-origin, German-operated manufacturer of professional workbenches, tool storage, and industrial workstation systems. It is a direct peer in the heavy-duty professional workbench category, with comparable customers in metalworking, manufacturing, and service workshops across DACH.

Broad incumbents

• Hänel Bürosysteme GmbH: Hänel is a long-established German manufacturer of industrial storage and material-handling systems, including rotary and vertical carousels, plus workstation integration. It is a broad incumbent because, while not focused on height-adjustable tables, it serves the same German industrial ergonomic-workstation buyer and increasingly bundles worktables with storage systems.
