 FinCo
has created many custom fiberglass parts for the Wiggins Lift Company, a major manufacturer
of specialized industrial forklifts. The company produces a line of Wiggins Marina
Bull forklifts that are used to lift boats in and out of the water at marinas around
the world. When working in a corrosive salt water marina environment, however, the
prototype Marina Bull forklifts often suffered from substantial rust and corrosion
to their metal components, especially the sheet metal body. FinCo solved this problem
by creating customized fiberglass forklift bodies, control panels, and other items
to replace the metal components.
 FinCo’s
craftsmen used the original metal parts to develop their master patterns and molds,
then created a new line of fiberglass components that were immune to salt water corrosion
and other environmental hazards. These highly durable fiberglass components are now
standard features of all Wiggins Marina Bull forklifts.
