The Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (Leea) has announced that four new members have joined the LEEA Technical Committee. They are Rob Messenger of RUD Chains, Wan Djawad from Durham Lifting, Richard Oldknow of Yoke Industrial Corp, and Brandon Hire Station’s Craig Jenkins.

They will join a group of existing members that contribute expertise to the range of technical support offered by Leea.

Derek Buck, chairman of the Technical Committee and MD at Delmark Lifting Equipment, said: “We welcome the additional expertise that the new members bring to the LEEA Technical Committee, which will further boost the already significant contribution we, as members, can offer to the effectiveness of the technical support provided by the association. I would like to express our gratitude to the existing members and their companies that allow us to give our time freely.”

He added: “The committee’s success and growth has resulted in an increase in proposals for new guidance documents and is supported by well attended sub-committees and working groups whom I would also like to give thanks to. The vital work the team carries out to develop and deliver best practice guidance is a clear benefit of Leea membership.”

Leea is established across the globe as a representative body for all those involved in the lifting industry worldwide.
