Meet the Team Making Your Engineered Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices

We welcome you to meet some of the team providing engineered products, below-the-hook lifting devices, and lifter repair services.

Need a consult on a below-the-hook lifter or repair? Contact us here.

Whether it’s a common lift beam for a 150 lbs. load, or a specially-engineered 330-ton electric furnace lifter, we treat each lifting challenge the same. We have a fully-staffed engineering department, project managers, and estimators to help solve your lifting challenges and design the perfect solution for your unique lifting application.

In this video:
► Dan Sherwood, Product Manager with Mazzella Companies, explains how below-the-hook lifting devices can help create safer lifting environments.
► Lili Radu, P.E., Chief Engineer with Mazzella Companies, shares the history of our in-house engineering department, and how adhering to industry standards is a cornerstone for our engineers. (0:46)
