Earlier this year the North-east lifting company marked their 30-year anniversary of delivering powered lifting and load measuring solutions to projects as diverse as St Paul’s Cathedral and the new Queensferry Crossing across the Forth. They design, supply, inspect, service and repair lifting equipment for industry, specialising in the oil and gas and construction sectors. 

Bill Aitken, Managing Director said:  “Our 30th year in business has been an exciting one for us.  Red Rooster’s commitment to delivering bespoke lifting and load measuring solutions whilst practicing consistently high levels of service is paying off with us seeing a significant   increase in hires this year. We pride ourselves on being agile which is a major advantage to our customers that we can deliver being an independent company. It’s not uncommon for us to receive an enquiry, raise the job and send it out the same day.

“As a direct result of this increase in sales, this year has also seen us expand our dedicated team of experts.  Its fantastic to see our business growing and moving in a very positive direction, with many exciting projects on the horizon.”
