Ditch Spreadsheets for Good

Automated reminders for inspections, GA1 certificates, and full audit trail storage.

The Hidden Risk

If your lifting gear isn’t professionally managed, you’re walking a tightrope.

• Legally mandated GA1 inspections every 6–12 months—skip one, and you risk €3,000 fines or forced shutdowns

• A hoist failure could cause injury—or worse—and land you in serious legal trouble

• Spreadsheets and binders don’t cut it. One misplaced cert, and you’re exposed at the next audit

Ops? Facilities? Maintenance? Compliance? Whoever handles the gear—Hoistech takes the worry off your team’s plate.
