18 October 2022Ruthmann to take over exclusive distribution and maintenance of France Elévateur products in Germany, Austria and Switzerland

As of October 17th 2022, Ruthmann Holdings GmbH will take over the exclusive distribution and maintenance of France Elévateur products in Germany, Austria and Switzerland (German and Italian-speaking areas) with its sales force and service center network. This means that all current orders and contracts in these countries are taken over by Ruthmann.

Since June 2022, the brands France Elévateur and Movex have been part of the TIME Manufacturing Company (“TIME”), just like Versalift and Ruthmann. This acquisition therefore enables the development of partnerships between the group’s brands.

We are proud to distribute France Elévateur products in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and are pleased to be able to serve our customers even better with the new service location in Leipzig.”.”
