Product Overview
The Soosung SSL Series is a comprehensive range of electric self-propelled scissor lifts designed to deliver safe, efficient, and emissions-free aerial access. Spanning six models from the compact SSL-1432 to the heavy-duty SSL-4070, the range covers platform working heights up to 14 metres, making it one of the most versatile electric scissor lift families available in the UAE.
Powered entirely by a 24V battery system with a built-in on-board charger, the SSL Series produces zero exhaust emissions and minimal noise — ideal for indoor use in warehouses, retail spaces, cold storage, and clean manufacturing environments. The hydraulic scissor mechanism provides smooth, stable elevation, while a one-hand proportional joystick enables precise simultaneous travel and positioning even at full height.

Bring the load up to the worker, not the worker down to the load
Most back strain in a warehouse or workshop comes from the same place: people bending over pallets and crates at floor level, hundreds of times a shift. An electric scissor lift like the SSL fixes that quietly by raising the load to a comfortable working height, so packing, assembly and order-picking happen at waist level instead of on the floor.
It is one of those tools whose value is easy to underrate until you watch a team use one. Pair it with a packing bench or a loading dock and the awkward lifting more or less disappears, which matters as much for staff retention and injury claims as it does for speed.
Where we see it earn its keep
Assembly and sub-assembly stations, pack-and-dispatch benches, machine feeding, and dock-height matching when a trailer floor and your floor do not line up. Tell us the load weight and the height range you need and we will point you to the right capacity rather than guessing.
