At Lift-Rite, safety is more than a set of rules—it’s a deeply rooted value we live by. One of our core values, “Safety in Our Culture,” guides every decision we make, from day-to-day operations to long-term planning. ISO 45001 certification serves as an important milestone in reinforcing this commitment, providing a strong foundation that supports our safety-first culture.

Through ISO 45001’s structured approach, we now have even more robust processes for:

  • Risk Assessment and Prevention: Identifying potential risks before they become incidents and implementing preventative measures to safeguard our team.
  • Employee Training and Engagement: Offering comprehensive safety training that empowers every team member to be proactive about safety.
  • Continuous Improvement: Regular audits and assessments that keep our safety practices evolving and aligned with the latest industry standards.

This certification demonstrates that Lift-Rite is an organisation they can trust to maintain safety as a priority on every project. In an industry where safety is paramount, ISO 45001 is more than a standard—it’s a benchmark that assures our partners we’re committed to protecting everyone involved in our operations.

When it comes to working at height, safety is a must.

Whether you’re in construction, energy, infrastructure or anywhere where lifting is necessary, Lift-Rite has the know-how, equipment and commitment to keep your workers safe.

Why Safety Lines Are Essential 

Fall protection systems provide workers with a convenient attachment point to help them avoid falls while giving them freedom of movement to work effectively. Safety lines are often found on roofs, ladders, bridges, cranes and other areas with high risk of falling.

Safety is in Lift-Rite’s DNA. For that reason, all our safety lines are designed, installed and maintained at the highest level to meet all standards and deliver quality protection.

When choosing a provider for safety lines, reliability, quality, and expertise are crucial. Here’s why Lift-Rite is the partner of choice for clients looking for high-performance safety line solutions:

  1. Expert Design and Installation

Every worksite is different and so are its safety requirements. Lift-Rite can customise a safety line solution to meet the specific requirements of your environment. Our professional experts conduct a full site survey, assess your safety requirements, and tailor a system suited to your needs that complies with all relevant safety standards such as BS EN 795 for fall protection systems.

Once the design is completed it is installed by our certified technicians. We ensure that all safety lines are tested and installed correctly, giving workers maximum protection, whilst allowing them the flexibility to carry out their tasks without restriction.

  1. Quality Equipment

Our fall protection systems at Lift-Rite are built with the most appropriate materials and components for the application. We procure equipment directly from major suppliers to ensure durability, strength and reliability. From horizontal to vertical lifelines, or retractable fall arrest systems, you can rest assured that our products will withstand the needs of your workplace.

  1. Compliance with Industry Standards

Safety compliance is non-negotiable.  All of Lift-Rite’s fall protection systems are installed and maintained to the highest standards of BS EN 795, the fall protection standard. We also make sure that solutions align with any regulatory requirements of your industry or site to ensure your work force is protected to the best possible standards.

  1. Comprehensive Maintenance and Inspection

Maintaining your safety systems is just as important as installing them. Lift-Rite can perform regular maintenance and inspections to keep your safety lines in peak condition. Inspections identify and damage, and we can do any necessary repairs or replacements to maintain your system in working order and complying with safety standards.

Our maintenance is timely and efficient, ensuring your safety lines are always operationally sound and ready to safeguard your employees.

With years of experience in delivering safety solutions, Lift-Rite has a proven track record of excellence. Our clients include companies in a wide range of industries, and we provide fall protection solutions that make it possible to work safely at height in some of the most hazardous conditions. We are trusted by our customers due to our extensive knowledge of safety line systems and a total dedication to quality and safety.

Why Safety Matters 

In the UK, the HSE states that the biggest employer-related injuries and deaths are attributable to height-based falls. Ensuring your workers have access to reliable fall protection equipment is not only important for their safety, but also for compliance with legal safety regulations.

Investing in a high-quality Lift-Rite safety line system, not only prevents accidents but also proves that you value the safety of your workers. By placing safety first, you reduce costly accidents, secure your workers, and increase productivity by allowing workers to feel confident they’re secure.

Lift-Rite Engineering Services is pleased to announce that is has been awarded a £250,000 contract from Baker Hughes, a world leader in energy technology. The alliance reinforces Lift-Rite’s expertise in offering lifting solutions to the largest industry players and will see the business design, manufacture and deliver two spreader beams.

Meeting Baker Hughes’ Rigorous Standards 

Baker Hughes, whose facilities span 120+ countries, needed robust, reliable and high-performance lifting solutions for their complex industrial projects. They selected Lift-Rite based on the company’s strong track record delivering reliable, bespoke lifting solutions that meet the most stringent safety and operational requirements.

The spreader beams, vital for moving large, heavy and awkward loads, will be specially designed to Baker Hughes’ rigorous requirements for its global operations and will be made to distribute the burden of heavy lifting loads as effectively as possible, ensuring best stability and maximum productivity.

What Are Spreader Beams? 

A spreader beam is a lifting device that balances heavy or awkward loads in crane lifts by dispersing the load weight over multiple hoisting locations. This reduces the strain on the load and the lifting equipment. Spreader beams are crucial in industries such as oil and gas, construction, and heavy engineering—sectors where safety and precision are paramount.

Tailor-Made Solutions for Baker Hughes 

Our skill is to create lifting solutions that are not only safe and compliant with regulatory standards, but also custom made to the requirements of our clients. For Baker Hughes, this is about building two custom spreader beams that can handle their demanding operations.

  • Custom Engineering: Each spreader beam will be designed and engineered specifically for Baker Hughes’ specific load specifications. Our engineers will design the beams in such a way that they can withstand high-demand usage and be as safe and efficient as possible.
  • Best Materials: All Lift-Rite lifting products are manufactured with quality, fully traceable and certified materials that meet with the clients specific requirements.
  • EN1090: Lift Rites manufacturing processes are in accordance with EN1090, ensuring full compliance with the standard on material and manufacturing traceability.
  • Comprehensive Testing: To further ensure safety, reliability and accordance with LOLER, the spreader beams are rigorously tested to ensure compliance with industry standards.

Building Our Relationship with Baker Hughes

The contract is an important achievement for us and our partnership with Baker Hughes, one of the most reputable names in the energy technology community. The award further consolidates Lift-Rite’s position as a trusted provider of high-precision lifting solutions in the global energy and industrial markets.
