Terry Lifts, the specialist lift manufacturer, announced in March its accreditation as a member of “Made in Britain,” an organisation which brings together British manufacturers united by a registered collective mark.

As a member, Terry Lifts is licensed to use the official, protected mark, showing that its products are British-made and have been manufactured to the highest standards.

To become a member, Terry Lifts had to submit written evidence proving its status as a British manufacturer. Therefore, the mark also lets customers know that Terry Lifts is a trusted company that values transparency.

“With heightened awareness surrounding imported goods from certain countries and regions, and the social, economic and environmental impact this has, we are hopeful that British consumers and decision makers will increasingly seek British-made products.”

– Steve Hill, Terry Lifts national sales manager

Through the application process, Terry Lifts also proved its commitment to lowering its carbon footprint through reduced and more efficient transportation and logistics, as well as ethical sourcing of component parts.

Made in Britain CEO John Pearce said:

“We are delighted that Terry Lifts has joined our growing community of 1,800 member companies. With its 70-year history of quality engineering, Terry Lifts epitomises the innovation, consistency and resilience that are embedded in the DNA of the British manufacturing sector. By displaying the Made in Britain mark, Terry Lifts’ existing and potential customers can clearly see that the company’s products adhere to the highest standards and are of truly British provenance.”

For more than five decades, Terry Lifts has been innovative in its design and manufacture of lift and access equipment. It is responsible for the first counterbalanced stairlift, which led to the development of the Terry Personal hand-operated through-floor lift in 1968. Since then, the company has won multiple design awards and developed more industry-first products, including the first domestic through-floor direct-acting hydraulic lift, the Harmony. Today, the company provides lift solutions and services that enable users and their loved ones to overcome barriers, revolutionise their quality of life and restore some independence.

Terry Lifts operates from its headquarters in Knutsford, Cheshire. Its range includes through-floor lifts, platform lifts, step lifts, home lifts and portable wheelchair lifts. The company also offers complete lift servicing, repair and maintenance, and 100% of its supply chain for its home lift products is based in the U.K.

Steve Hill, national sales manager for Terry Lifts, said:

“We are incredibly proud of our British heritage and our commitment to the British manufacturing industry. Being ‘Made in Britain’ accredited reinforces this message. With heightened awareness surrounding imported goods from certain countries and regions, and the social, economic and environmental impact this has, we are hopeful that British consumers and decision makers will increasingly seek British-made products. As this unfolds, we are perfectly positioned to meet that requirement.”
