History
Lifting Technologies was founded in 1987 to provide a product to safely lift personnel with a crane. OSHA had recently passed new rules about man baskets and Lifting Technologies was the first on the scene with an OSHA-compliant man basket. Forklift-mounted man baskets followed a few years later along with the development of the Quick Claw attachment. In 1992, the company built and sold its first material-only platform. Since then, LT has built thousands of platforms and sold them worldwide.
