ELS is a manufacturer, designer, and distributor of a wide portfolio of material handling products used in environments ranging from distribution centers to heavy manufacturing. Primary products produced in Elmira include Destuff-IT \/ Restuff-IT ergonomic conveyor systems for loading and unloading containers, overhead crane systems, transfer carts, and below-the-hook lifting attachments.\u00a0 Integration of the two companies will begin immediately and is expected to last throughout 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe acquisition of ELS allows Gorbel<\/a> to build upon our mission to improve people\u2019s lives beyond our traditional overhead lifting solutions,\u201d said Brian Reh, Gorbel<\/a> CEO.\u00a0\u201cIn particular, the Destuff-IT and Restuff-IT products that protect and assist employees in distribution centers enable Gorbel to effectively enter a market where we have had minimal presence in the past.\u00a0 Additionally, we intend to add many of ELS\u2019s other products to our overhead lifting offering thus better serving our traditional markets.\u201d<\/p>\n
