from Cleveland, he started work for Otis Dufrene with SW Sling Center. After about 5 years and multiple layoffs due to the oil and gas downturn in Houston, he moved to Southwest Wire Rope in 1986. After 17 years with Southwest Wire Rope, Doug decided to explore other opportunities within the industry. He met with David Bishop and the rest is history. Doug has been with Bishop Lifting Products for 17 years and has been an extremely valuable asset to the sales team. Doug Wetzel said “I’ve sold miles and miles of wire rope… High Performance boom and hoist ropes, to standard drill lines, to barge pre-slinging ropes. When I started there were only 6x26, 6x36 & 19x7 non- rotating. Man has wire rope come along easy since then!” Harold King, current President of Bishop
Lifting, says “I remember giving Doug his first tour of the Bishop facility on Harris drive. He wouldn’t agree to work for BLP until he saw the facility!” Your family at Bishop Lifting is going
to miss you Doug. Happy birding and njoy retirement! y

of a 10 ft. by 20 ft. booth in the show’s Fulfillment & Delivery area, where OZ Lifting is hoping to engage visitors seeking solutions for order fulfillment; e-commerce and omni-channel fulfillment; order packing and packaging; third-party logistics; warehousing; distribution; and transportation. However, the breadth and diversity of OZ Lifting’s range will apply the products to a much wider audience. Steve Napieralski, president at OZ
Lifting, said: “The industry-first [Tele- Pro] davit cranes will be a game-changer. However, we have found that all of our products have been used in many different markets and industries. We are focusing on the material handling, wastewater, manufacturing and property management sectors, but our equipment is used in a myriad of industries including construction, aviation, gas, oil, boat, wind, manufacturing, among others—worldwide. We offer innovate products and solutions that make the job easier and safer.” While the Tele-Pro will be the standout
product for many, OZ will also showcase its complete range of davit cranes, including the CompOZite and CompOZite Elite carbon fiber models. The 1,200-lb. capacity OZ 1200DAV, for example, was recently featured in a widely published case study, where it was employed on a rooftop for maintenance as contractors performed preventative maintenance on equipment, such as changing filters on rooftop units, air conditioning, fans, and condensers. The company will also exhibit lever hoists, chain hoists, clamps and trolleys. Napieralski said: “As a new member of
MHI, and based on the positive feedback we received at ProMat 2019, it will be a natural transition onto the MODEX show floor.
