Lootah Lemmens is proud to announce its appointment as an official dealer of Verlinde’s Stagemaker range for the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. This strategic addition to our portfolio marks an exciting step forward, allowing us to serve not only traditional industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and energy β€” but also the entertainment and live events sector with professional, certified hoisting solutions.


Bringing High-Performance Lifting to the Entertainment Industry

Since 2006, Lootah Lemmens has delivered overhead cranes, gantry systems, jib cranes, and hoist units across the UAE and broader GCC, with complete in-house engineering and manufacturing capabilities at our 80-person facility in Umm Al Quwain. Our lifting systems are known for their durability, reliability, and long-term performance, serving industries like oil & gas, metal fabrication, power generation, and infrastructure.

By partnering with Verlinde, a leading name in European hoisting equipment, we now extend our offering into the entertainment and AV industry with the Stagemaker product line β€” a globally respected brand for lifting technology in event rigging and show production.


What Is Stagemaker?

Each hoist is compact, quiet, and built to the highest safety standards. Models are available with lifting capacities ranging from 250 kg up to 2,000 kg, with direct control or low voltage control options, and a wide range of suspension and rigging configurations.
