  • At Apex Lifts, sustainability is at the core of everything we do, from material sourcing and manufacturing to the distribution of our products. Our Full Circle Green Policy, for example, ensures that we always seek to keep or re-use any serviceable lift parts, either on the same modernisation project or as critical spares elsewhere. To mark Global Recycling Day, March 18th, we’re doing our part by cleaning our local environment; a small yet meaningful way to raise awareness about recycling, reducing waste, and protecting our surroundings. Every small step matters. Let’s keep working together to make the earth greener every day! 🌱 #GlobalRecyclingDay #Sustainability #ApexLifts #RecycleMore

  • 🤝 From meeting, to work experience, to the future of the industry? 🚀 In December, we exhibited at a Kent school's careers fair. We met an ambitious young woman who was keen to get into engineering. She was keen to progress and brought her CAD drawings with her. Last week, we welcomed Annabelle* on work experience. She spent the week experiencing a number of roles including Service and Repairs with John Roberts, Sales with Rowena Montanaro and our unique workshop with Alan Simons. She's now considering undertaking an apprenticeship with us after her schooling! The lift industry needs new young people, and women. We're proudly doing our best to safeguard the future of the lift industry. *image and name changed to protect privacy.
