From the very start, and to the surprise of many in the lifting industry, Reid eschewed the traditional and widespread use of steel in our designs and opted instead for the superior qualities inherent in selected lightweight aluminium alloys. Such strong, resilient and light materials have proved to be an inspired choice and form the current backbone behind our success.

Our design team works with external independent engineers and verifiers and has proved, beyond doubt, the effectiveness and critical safety qualities built into all our products. This, coupled with our products’ superior performance, has built a powerful rationale supporting Reid’s developing product line and has helped to significantly change attitudes towards materials such as aluminium.The material properties, combined with Reid’s innovative, lightweight design, make possible new and different lifting strategies to traditional problems and provide solutions to lifting challenges previously unaddressed or thought very expensive and time consuming.

Reid Lifting’s excellent reputation and success continues to grow and our positive attitude towards manufacturing superior products and developing new designs ensures that we stay ahead in our chosen markets.
