Caldwell Lifting Solutions (Hardware)

Caldwell Lifting Solutions is a leading manufacturer of below-the-hook lifting equipment with a history dating back to 1954 when founder Leslie M. Caldwell began designing and producing lifting slings in Rockford, Illinois. What started as a small operation making nylon web slings with a sewing machine quickly grew into one of North America’s most respected manufacturers of engineered lifting devices. Today, as part of The Caldwell Group, the company designs and manufactures a wide range of lifting and material-handling equipment including lifting beams, coil lifters, clamps, vacuum lifters, fork truck attachments, and gantry systems used in construction, manufacturing, steel processing, and heavy industry. Through decades of innovation, acquisitions, and engineering development—including partnerships with brands such as J.C. Renfroe and RUD—Caldwell has built a reputation for delivering high-quality, custom lifting solutions that prioritize safety, durability, and efficiency for rigging professionals worldwide.
