Service contractors secure £80m lifts framework

Fusion21 has appointed 37 service contractors to its national Lifts Framework worth up to £80m over four years.

The firms, three-quarters of which are SMEs, will carry out lift-related works and services to the public sector, including housing, education, and healthcare sites.

Offering geographical coverage across the UK, the framework supports the design, installation, servicing, testing, and refurbishment works of passenger and goods lifts, stair lifts and lift consultancy services.

Peter Francis, executive director (operations) at Fusion21, said: “This framework renewal will support our members to manage and maintain both passenger and goods lifts compliantly, while also catering for the renewal and refurbishment of aging units and the service and installation of domestic lifts.”
