KLEEMANN and D.L. Martin’s collaboration for the North American market

KLEEMANN, a leading global elevator manufacturer, announces the expansion of its collaboration with D.L. Martin for the manufacture of internally synchronized telescopic hydraulic jacks for the North American market. 

The relationship between KLEEMANN and D.L. Martin dates to 2015. Building on this long-standing cooperation, the two companies are combining KLEEMANN’s expertise in hydraulic elevator engineering with D.L. Martin’s U.S. manufacturing capabilities to deliver a solution tailored to the requirements of the North American elevator industry.

 "Telescopic hydraulic jacks are a critical component in elevator safety and performance, and we've engineered ours to meet the highest standards. What makes this partnership work is a shared commitment to quality and precision — D.L. Martin brings deep manufacturing expertise, and together we're able to deliver that same level of confidence to installations across North America," said Nikolaos Koukountzos, Managing Director of KLEEMANN Group. 

Designed by KLEEMANN and manufactured in the U.S. by D.L. Martin, the telescopic hydraulic jacks will be distributed to the independent elevator market across the United States through Alliance Elevator Solutions, a U.S. distributor of elevator packages and components. 

Preston Spahr, Chair of D.L. Martin Company, expressed his gratitude to the KLEEMANN team. "We're grateful to KLEEMANN for this collaboration on telescopic jacks, an important advancement in our product line," said Spahr. "Our engineering teams worked together to bring a proven design to the North American market. Independent elevator contractors now have a new sourcing option, backed by KLEEMANN's design and D.L. Martin's reputation for quality manufacturing." 

Building on KLEEMANN’s already established presence in the U.S. through DAY Elevator & Lift, a KLEEMANN Group company, this initiative represents a further step in expanding the Group’s footprint in the United States.
