Aspire range™

A more sustainable choice

The Aspire range™ is our ambition to offer the market a more sustainable choice.

To reduce the negative climate impact and  the use of virgin raw material are challenges that we and the whole lifting industry are facing. At Lifting Solutions, we want to lead the transformation and set the standards for a more sustainable future in our industry.

Our Aspire range™ is carefully selected products which have features that are more sustainable than conventional products. They have a reduced negative impact on the climate and/or the environment, but without any sacrifices on neither quality nor safety. It is our aspiration and dedication to work towards a lifting industry operated in a sustainable way.

Requirements

Creating common standards on a global market is complicated and takes time. We respect that process, but we won’t let it slow down our own ambitions to be forerunners and to show what’s possible. Consequently, we have developed our own standard based on criterias for products to be qualified as Aspire range™.
