Gemini Power Hydraulics Pvt Ltd is set to become the first 100% indigenous Indian manufacturer to exhibit at GIS Expo 2025—Europe’s flagship show for lifting, industrial handling and heavy transport—being held in Piacenza, Italy, from 25–27 September 2025. The company will unveil its flagship LEVO 14 aerial platform in an international debut that signals India’s arrival as a source of world-class access equipment.

The LEVO series—conceived on the pillars of Resolution, Revolution and Evolution—has already seen more than 200 machines (including LEVO 11 and LEVO 14) deployed across India. Designed and built entirely in-house, the platforms marry robust engineering with ease of maintenance to meet demanding duty cycles in utilities, infrastructure and industrial sites.

LEVO 14 carries EN 280 and CE certifications and the sought-after My Inner Strenx® badge—recognising use of Strenx® high-performance steel and stringent fabrication standards achieved by only a select cadre of global OEMs. Gemini is also an IPAF member, underscoring its commitment to safe work-at-height practices and training.

“LEVO is not just a machine—it is our statement that India can lead with design, quality and innovation,” said Managing Director Rajiv Sethi. “Exhibiting at GIS is more than a milestone for Gemini; it is a moment of pride for Indian manufacturing. We are ready to show the world what ‘Made in India, Ready for the World’ truly means.”
