About Wolter Group LLC
The Wolter Group LLC brand was formed in 2011 as a means to unify our growing family of companies’ rich history under one umbrella, allowing our collective strength to be easily recognizable. This name comes from the Wolter family who founded Wisconsin Lift Truck, a prominent member of the Wolter Group, originating in 1962.
From the beginning, our mission has been to enable customers’ success through value-added solutions, supported by superior service and quality products, professionally delivered with a sense of urgency. That same mission still stands today, more than five decades later.
The Wolter Group consists of material handling, engineered systems, automation, storage & handling, filing, fleet management, equipment leasing, and power systems sectors. The Wolter Group serves over 20,000 industrial, construction, and commercial customers in Wisconsin, Upper Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, and St. Louis. Employing over 450 associates including more than 200 technicians in its operations, with an average length of service of fourteen years, the Wolter Group is a leader in the industries it serves.
