He went on to design and develop a basic handheld pallet lifter, quickly followed by a small mobile scissor table which were sold through an industrial catalogue company.
Over the years, we’ve stayed true to these innovative beginnings, adapting to provide a range of more customisable options which others struggle to compete with.
We’re based in Peterborough, UK, where our team of expert technical designers and skilled engineers design and manufacture all of our standard and bespoke products in our 40,000ft² purpose-built factory.
Our office is on-site, creating an enviably close working environment that allows us to deliver a truly bespoke service while maintaining our ‘Made in Britain’ accredited standards.
Our lifting equipment is exceptional, but what really sets us apart is our team and the service they provide day in, day out. Here’s what some of our customers have said about our fantastic people:
“We obtained three like for like quotes. In terms of location, Advanced Handling was actually the furthest away, but Rebecca was the most pro-active in terms of coming back to us and answering queries and satisfying concerns.”
“Never bought a lift before, Advanced Handling guided us through the steps to make it clear and simple. The process was stress free and seamless and we are ready to order a second one any day now.”
“We are very happy with the process from start to finish and are glad we went with Advanced Handling. For any of our lifting needs in the future we know where our first stop will be.”
Safety is integral to everything we do, so you’ll be reassured to know that all Advanced Handling solutions are UKCA and CE marked, exceeding EN1570-1 regulations where applicable and delivered with a Declaration of Conformity. We also have SafeContractor accreditation, demonstrating our commitment to achieving excellence in health and safety.
Invest in an Advanced Handling product and you get more than high-quality lifting and handling solutions. You also get a minimum 6-month extendable warranty and a dedicated after-sales team to keep your lifting equipment up and running at its best. You can call on us for repairs, maintenance and servicing as well as the regulatory PUWER, LOLER and Thorough Examination inspections.
Our Britishness has always been a defining part of who we are and we are accredited ‘Made in Britain’ manufacturers. We are backed by Amplex, a privately owned Swedish corporate group that acquires, owns and develops technology-based businesses in lifting technology and materials handling. It’s the perfect partnership, supporting our efficiency and competitiveness, and giving our customers the best possible products and service.
