GEDA: Experts for height access – also on Finnish construction sites

GEDA can look back on decades of experience on the Scandinavian market. The construction hoist experts have already concluded numerous successful projects in Sweden, Norway and Denmark. For example, a GEDA 300 Z is currently being used on Helsinki Cathedral – the landmark and one of the main tourist attractions in the Finnish capital – for the completion of comprehensive renovation work.
The extent of the GEDA product range is second to none. From compact 60 kg wire rope lifts for workmen to personnel and material hoists with load capacities up to 3.7 tonnes and lifting heights up to 400 m – the product range could not be broader in its scope.
Florian Draxler, Area Sales Manager at GEDA, is convinced: “GEDA is the only manufacturer worldwide to offer everything - from tender preparation through to service - from a single source. And it is this aspect that has convinced demanding customers such as MN-Lifttek.”

The way ahead for a trusting and successful collaboration has now been set out and both MN-Lifttek and GEDA are looking forward to jointly executing numerous construction projects in Finland.
