Backsaver
Who we are
Backsaver has been a specialist in the manufacture of top-quality stainless-steel lifting and tipping machinery for the food industry since 1990. Backsaver machines are simple and easy-to-use solutions for process optimization resulting in healthy employees.
Backsaver is an offshoot of the van Oirschot Roestvrijstaal BV, a family business established in 1948 as a specialist in stainless-steel custom work. For more than 40 years, we have accrued great experience in the manufacture of lifting and tipping machinery. In the early 1990s, having seen the huge demand for this kind of machinery, we established a separate brand called “Backsaver.”
The brand name “Backsaver” is entirely appropriate. After all, our machines may provide user-friendly solutions for process optimization, but they also prevent the risk of injury due to repeated bending and heavy lifting.
Backsaver is a family business run, since 2011, by the capable hands of the van Oirschot brothers, Bram and Tom, who represent the third generation. Each Backsaver machine is engineered and manufactured in our dedicated facility. Operating as a team, with a short line and optimal efficiency, we focus on customer service and total satisfaction, so we’ll always think from your perspective. Our job is to provide quality solutions that ensure immediate satisfaction. The customer and end user are foremost in all we do.
Backsaver: Work hard, lift smart.

ERGONOMICS
Backsavers are ergonomic solutions to reduce the risk of back strain injuries for your employees. Our CE-marked machines comply with ARBO/OHS and other local health and safety regulations. Reduce manual lifting and resulting physical strain. Use a Backsaver!
SAFETY
All Backsavers are designed to be safe for your employees. Our machines feature hydraulic cylinders that use gravity to lower the emptied bin, ensuring bodily safety in the vicinity of the machine. The controls are provided close to the moving parts for the operator to overview the machine area during operation. A loud backup signal warns others that the machine is in operation. Backsavers designed for greater lifting heights are additionally equipped with a flashing LED beacon to gain attention as the load is brought down.
