More than 30 years experience in access platforms

The story of Danilift began about 30 years ago when Søren Olesen and Knud Erik Markussen both worked as electro-mechanics for the same company in Northern Jutland, Denmark.

In 1988, they took over the electro-department from their former employer and started running an electro-mechanical workshop with four employees, servicing electric motors, starting motors, generators and electrical control systems for the local companies.

As time went on, the electro-company came to hold a strong position in the field of control system production for the machinery industry, and they started to develop special-purpose machines for the woodworking industry as well as the platform industry.

At the beginning of 1991, one of the company's most important clients went out of business. A new company arose from the ashes of the previous one, and when the two colleagues were offered to take over this exact company in 1991, they accepted. This became the start of Danilift A/S.
