Lifting Solutions is celebrating its involvement in the successful completion of one of Europe's most impressive landmarks, the new Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth, which has now been completed.
All hoisting equipment on production sites will have to be ATEX-certified, or covered by a risk analysis, and the equipment concerned be brought into compliance.
Lifting Solutions' managing director, Jonathan Moorhouse, says: "For some time now we have been embarking on an expansion and diversification strategy, and recently tied up a major partnership with French manufacturer Verlinde as part of this strategy.
"The addition of the Verlinde ATEX range makes us a one-stop-shop ensuring that your complete site is in compliance with these new European requirements relating to explosive environments.
By opting for a Verlinde branded product from Lifting Solutions, you will have the peace of mind that you have the highest quality branded product backed by one of the world's premier names in lifting and handling.
Being compliant is not only the law, it also demonstrates best practise and illustrates a company's commitment to operating the optimum site safety regime.".
