SIOUX CENTER, Iowa, June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Link Mfg., Ltd., the leading U.S. manufacturer of lightweight folding aluminum ramps, announced today that it will begin production on its new, high-capacity LB20 Loading Ramps. Customers will be able to begin ordering the new LB20 models through certified Link Dealers as of June 3rd, 2025.
"Link is eager to begin production on the high-capacity LB20 design," said Lynn Blake, senior account manager for Link Mfg. "The increased capacity of the new design will provide our customers with the ability to load and unload cargo and equipment weighing up to 2000 pounds, enhancing all aspects of their workflows."
In February, Link publicized that they would be introducing a high-capacity loading ramp to maximize load width in cargo vans. Each LB20 ramp features a steel deck mounting plate and a durable extruded high-strength aluminum ribbed surface. Additionally, each 47 by 126-inch and 51 by 126-inch LB20 ramp feature adjustable, fold down legs for stability. For lift assistance while deploying and stowing the ramp, Link included two pull-style, gas-spring-assist lifting mechanisms to reduce exertion and lifting force required by individuals. All models feature Link's wheel kit, allowing ramps to deploy and retract smoothly on a wide variety of surface angles and materials. The 47-126 is designed for Mercedes Sprinter Cargo Vans, while the 51-126 is designed for Ford Transit and Ram Promaster Cargo Vans.
"Link is committed to providing safety-focused loading solutions," said Blake. "The 47-inch-wide and 51-inch-wide ramps were designed in response to customer requests for a wider ramp to accommodate transporting larger equipment in a cargo or parcel vehicle."
The LB20 47-126 and 51-126 ramps offer Link's highest available load capacity. The ramps are designed and tested to accommodate equipment for a variety of business sectors including landscaping, lawn care, commercial cleaning services, deliveries, audiovisuals, HVAC, construction, and more.

Riunite Reinforces Category Leadership with 360-Degree Marketing Campaign for National Lambrusco Day this June
Capitalizing on the Growth of the Spritz and Low-ABV Preferences, Riunite Expands Its Reach Across a New Generation of Drinkers NEW YORK, June 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Riunite, the historic Italian wine brand and global leader in Lambrusco, announces a series of local tasting events across the U.S. in celebration of National Lambrusco Day on June 21, 2025.

"With these activations, Riunite is cementing its role as the driving force behind National Lambrusco Day—making it a key moment for both the brand and the broader Lambrusco category. And what better way to celebrate National Lambrusco Day, honor Riunite's legacy, and showcase the lively, food-friendly character of the wine." Italy's largest wine group—and currently the #1 selling Italian red value brand under $11 in the U.S.— is once again winning over a new generation of consumers by combining nostalgic appeal with a fresh, modern twist. After nearly three decades as one of the top 10 imported wines in the U.S., the brand is experiencing renewed momentum through a nationwide marketing campaign focused on the experience/occasion of pizza / pairing to introduce the brand and the larger Lambrusco category in an approachable and accessible way. With an AI-powered pizza contest that has become a standout element of its efforts to engage a new generation of consumers, already attracting over 12,000 participants across the country, with winners set to receive a year's supply of pizza. To reinforce its strong position in the category and celebrate National Lambrusco Day, Riunite has invested in a refreshed digital presence, including a new website, along with social media, influencer partnerships, strategic communications, and paid media initiatives. Additionally, events in partnership with Liquid Productions will be held in cities across the country, including NYC, Milwaukee, Nashville, Chicago, Dallas, and Tampa Bay.

Building on Lambrusco's market dominance and the growing popularity of spritz cocktails—now a top 3 trending cocktail and among the top 2 most consumed in the U.S., according to the latest report by Ground Signal—Riunite recently introduced the Lambrusco Spritz: a refreshing blend of Lambrusco, sparkling wine, and a splash of lemon, served over ice and garnished with a vibrant lemon wheel. This modern twist reflects the brand's playful, easy-drinking spirit. And when paired with a slice of pizza? It's the ultimate expression of laid-back Italian indulgence.
