Menu Who we are Independent and family-owned lift company since 1867 Over 150 years ago, our founder Joseph Stannah started our business, manufacturing cranes and hoists to assist in transporting goods around London dockyards. Since then, a lot has changed, but our company remains an independent family business, with the fifth-generation of the Stannah family now at the wheel. Committed to our customers and our values We are proud of our values, which have been passed down through successive generations and guide our people in the Stannah way of doing business. We work in the most straightforward way possible, with our customers and employees at the heart of our business, whilst carrying out our work honestly and responsibly. We are committed to delivering quality products, providing our customers with superior service and value-for-money so that we are a company you can rely on. We summarise this with our promise to our customers, which is to be 'always true to our word'. Ensuring safety at all times We take care of the safety of our passengers, our customers and our employees by making sure it is our first priority in everything we do.
