Celebrating Team Spirit!

We know that our brand is built by our people and that’s why it’s so important that we recognise the continued hard work and dedication of everyone that goes into making Gantrail the brand that it is today.

We were delighted to recognise two team members recently.

Carole Cresswell, Finance Director, celebrated her 20th year as part of the Gantrail team. This was a phenomenal milestone and we are extremely grateful and proud to have Carole as part of the Management Team driving our brand forwards.

Also Production Assistant, Adrian Sleigh, recently reached his 5 year anniversary with the team. Another important milestone for the company and one very much appreciated and recognised by all who work alongside Adrian.

Many thanks to Carole and Adrian for all your hard work and commitment to the Gantrail brand and our partners and clients worldwide.

Time well spent for our team in Panama

It seems that the Gantrail team has had another successful visit to TOC Americas in Panama earlier this month, returning with a healthy pipeline of new contacts and enquiries for their crane rail expertise.

Held in Panama between the 13-15 November, Gantrail Senior Sales and Distribution Managers took to the stand over the 3 days, reporting a very positive level of interest in the latest product innovations.

All set and ready to go at TOC Americas 2018

Speaking of the event, MD Designate Peter Bygrave said, “Choosing to attend an event such as TOC Americas is a significant undertaking for our team. As with all businesses, we need to look at the commercial impact that the investment can make in terms of client engagement and new business opportunity. I’m delighted to report that our presence at TOC Americas has proven itself to be extremely worthwhile, giving us a showcase in this strategic market, to share our expertise, meet with partners and start new conversations for upcoming projects.”

We are proud to announce that Gantrail has successfully transitioned to the revised ISO standard for Quality Management Systems, being awarded ISO 9001:2015 approval from NQA.

The certification confirms that Gantrail’s Quality Management System fully meets the requirements of the international standard.

Our commitment to maintain ISO 9001 approval emphasises our dedication to anticipate and meet the needs of our clients and stakeholders through an effective quality management system.

The scope of this approval applies to the manufacture, supply and installation of crane rail systems for use in building and other construction projects.

This was only possible due the continued efforts of our Quality Department, Managers and all staff on site. Through the application of the process approach and risk based thinking we are able to identify and address opportunities to consistently provide products and services which exceed customer expectation.
