Stannah is a world leader in lifting products, supplying stairlifts, passenger lifts, escalators and moving walkways, vertical platform lifts, goods, and service lifts. It is one of Britain’s leading engineering companies and remains an independent, family-owned and run firm. The company’s experience in the lift industry is unsurpassed, originating in cargo lifts in the 1860s. In 1975, Stannah designed its first affordable, quick-to-install and easy-to-use stairlift and has since sold nearly one million stairlifts worldwide.
We work in partnership with local authorities to meet their clients’ need for reliable, high quality and safe products, which enable them to continue living independently in their own homes. We recognise the challenges that local authorities face and work collaboratively to reduce costs and increase efficiency. Our long-established Stannah Stairlift Reuse Scheme enables local authorities to make measurable savings by reconditioning Stannah stairlifts. Reconditioning also enables the faster installation of Stannah stairlifts, without compromising on product functionality, usability or safety, to understand more about our reuse scheme click on the video below.
Local authorities can work with us via national purchasing frameworks, local frameworks, and direct supply contracts.
