William Hackett, a trusted global supplier of safety-critical lifting, rigging and chain solutions, has signed a strategic partnership with Vulcan Hoist.<\/p>\n

The agreement brings together two highly respected hoist manufacturers from both sides of the Atlantic. Founded in 1892 in the UK, William Hackett is a global leader in the manufacture of bespoke chain solutions and lifting products. It offers a broad range of manual hoists, along with chains and associated equipment. Based in Montreal, Vulcan Hoist Co. Ltd. is the only Canadian manufacturer of electric hoists and trolleys, with a history stretching back more than 60 years.<\/p>\n

From 2026, the new partnership includes reciprocal product sharing, meaning that Vulcan\u2019s customers in Canada and the USA gain better access to William Hackett\u2019s comprehensive range of hoists and lifting equipment. This will start with the William Hackett Quad Pawl hoists range, with the portfolio gradually expanding throughout 2026. William Hackett will also benefit from Vulcan\u2019s electric hoist expertise.<\/p>\n

Mick Howard, CEO at William Hackett, said: \u201cThis strategic partnership is the perfect fit for both parties. Like William Hackett, Vulcan has a family-run ethos with strong family values and a customer-first approach. By working together, we strengthen each other and most importantly, bring the benefits of a broader product range and enhanced stock availability to our clients worldwide.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn addition, our existing teams can now draw from a larger pool of expertise and experience, to ensure the highest levels of customer service.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"

The new partnership includes reciprocal product sharing \u2014 starting with the William Hackett Quad Pawl hoists range.<\/p><\/div>\n

This collaboration marks a significant milestone in William Hackett\u2019s expansion into the Canadian market, combining its century-long expertise in lifting equipment with Vulcan\u2019s specialised knowledge in electric hoist technology.<\/p>\n

The partnership will accelerate product availability and enhance service capabilities across a broader range of industries, including energy, infrastructure, commercial, and construction sectors.<\/p>\n

While Vulcan Hoist was founded as a limited company in 1964, it can trace its roots back to 1947. Known for its electric hoists, it has also offered manual chain hoists, ratchet pullers, beam and plate clamps and other lifting related products since 1973. Along with sales it offers equipment rental as well as hoist certification, maintenance and repair services.<\/p>\n

\"\"

William Hackett Quad Pawl hoists will be the first available to Vulcan Hoist customers.<\/p><\/div>\n

All William Hackett lifting products are supplied through its facility in Alnwick, in North-East England, which has been operational for 35 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe partnership with Vulcan Hoist will accelerate our plans for expansion into Canada, an important market for William Hackett,\u201d added Howard.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is also our goal to be a full-line provider of hoists and associated equipment. The ability to offer our global customer base electric hoists built with the same quality and care as our manual hoists and our recently launched pneumatic hoists, represents a major step forward in that strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
