Cranes and Lifting Devices

Ensure Safe Operation, Regulatory Compliance, and a Safer Workplace

Cranes and lifting equipment play a vital role in industries such as manufacturing, construction, logistics, and material handling. These assets are often used to lift and move heavy loads in demanding environments, making safety, reliability, and operational performance essential. Regular inspections help identify potential issues before they develop into safety hazards, equipment failures, or costly downtime, while ensuring compliance with applicable regulations and standards.

DEKRA is approved by SWEDAC and the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning (Boverket) to perform inspections of cranes, lifting equipment, and other lifting devices. Our experienced inspection engineers carry out thorough assessments to verify that equipment is operating safely, remains in good condition, and meets all relevant regulatory requirements.
During an inspection, we examine key components such as load-bearing structures, lifting mechanisms, control systems, safety devices, electrical systems, and other critical functions. These evaluations help ensure that the equipment can continue to operate safely and efficiently while reducing the risk of accidents, operational disruptions, and unplanned maintenance costs.
DEKRA is also accredited and designated as a Notified Body under applicable European regulations and directives. This enables us to perform independent conformity assessments and technical evaluations for manufacturers, suppliers, and equipment owners. Our services include EC Type Examination and other verification activities related to machinery and lifting equipment, helping ensure compliance before products are placed on the market or put into service.
By choosing DEKRA for crane and lifting equipment inspections, organizations gain a trusted and independent partner dedicated to improving safety, supporting regulatory compliance, and helping maintain efficient and reliable operations.
