Pioneering Accessibility and Innovation
In the late 1990s, Aussie Lifts previous owners found a big gap in the market. This gap led to the company’s founding. He recognized the need for lifts made for disability. They were different from the standard residential and commercial lifts that dominated the market at the time. This realization marked the start of our chapter. It was born out of the need to serve a niche, but very under-served, part of society.
