UpRight, Inc.
 PROFILE
Since 1946 UpRight's business has enjoyed its ups and downs. A subsidiary of W.R. Carpenter, the firm makes platforms and hydraulic lifts that aid aerial construction and maintenance on facilities such as retail centers, airports, stadiums and other public buildings. Its products include scissor lifts, portable lifts, boom lifts, and aluminum scaffolding. The company also produces telescopic material handlers that can lift loads as heavy as 8,000 pounds. UpRight sells its products to equipment-rental companies in the Americas, Europe, and the Pacific Rim. W.R. Carpenter sold UpRight's sister company, Horizon High Reach, to United Rentals in 2000.
