Our history
At Instant Latvija SIA we started our business in 2007 as distributor of scaffolds, towers, lifts and material handling products. We still operate this business today as a separate department covering the Latvian market (see www.instantlatvija.lv for more information).
In 2023 it was decided to start our own production of aluminum tower scaffolds. This is a joint effort by Zip-Up Svenska AB of Sweden and Instant Norge AS of Norway. Both companies are long time distributor of scaffolding in Sweden and Norway and were at that time facing the same challenges with supply.
After investing in the factory, securing raw material of the highest quality and installing new and modern machinery, we were ready to start test production. We also started the certification process with RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) and in June 2024 we got our product certification. While working with certification and product testing, we also started recruiting members to our team. We are proud to say that all our team members have years of experience in the production of tower scaffolds.
What do we do?
We develop and produce tower scaffolding that will last for the future. With our unique manufacturing process, robust, and easy-to-install scaffolding, our customers can always work efficiently and be safe. Since we use the best materials in our production, modern machinery and strict quality control, we are able to offer the best aluminum tower scaffolds on the market.
