CEO DIARIES
Spivey with colleagues from pewag, LMS and Modulift during the first joint strategy meeting as they unite to form the new pewag UK Group.
thinking will be essential to bridging that gap. Also, Global supply chain pressures and evolving regulatory requirements will further shape the sector. Companies will need to remain agile, invest in quality processes and maintain transparency with customers. Overall, I am optimistic. The lifting industry is fundamental to infrastructure growth and renewable development. With the right investment in people and technology, it is well positioned to continue evolving in a positive direction.
Are there any projects or initiatives that your company is working on that you’re excited about? At Modulift, we are continuously refining and expanding our modular lifting solutions to meet the changing demands of global projects. I am particularly excited about initiatives that enhance flexibility and usability for customers operating in complex environments. Becoming part of the pewag group has been a significant milestone for us. Modulift, Load Monitoring Systems, Aberdeen Web and pewag now operate collectively in the global market to deliver a complete below-the-hook solution from a single, integrated supply chain. By bringing together modular spreader beams, chain and hook systems, synthetic slings and load monitoring technology, we can provide customers with a fully compatible and integrated lifting package.
ABOUT MODULIFT
Modulift is a UK-based manufacturer of modular spreader beams and custom lifting equipment used across construction, energy, offshore and infrastructure projects worldwide. The company’s modular design approach enables adaptable, reusable lifting solutions that prioritise safety, efficiency and legislative conformity. With a global distribution network and a strong focus on quality and innovation, Modulift supports complex lifting operations across multiple sectors.
Sustainability is another area I’m passionate about. Pewag is working toward carbon neutrality across its subsidiaries by 2030, supported by measurable emissions reductions and increased renewable energy use. At Modulift, we have installed 338 solar panels across our facility – equivalent to planting 2,302 trees – and we actively measure and offset travel-related carbon emissions as part of our wider footprint strategy. Alongside this, innovation remains central to our approach. Across the group, we are developing practical solutions that address real lifting challenges – from improving load distribution and preventing sling wear, to enhancing hook security, increasing working load limits and providing accurate centre of gravity data. By focusing on engineering-led improvements, we ensure our customers are equipped to manage increasingly demanding lifting environments with confidence. Furthermore, we are investing in engineering development to improve configurability and performance across our spreader beam systems. Supporting sectors such as renewable energy and modular construction presents opportunities to innovate further, ensuring equipment can handle increasingly varied and demanding lifts. Internally, I am equally focused on people development and inclusion. Creating clear pathways for progression, mentoring talent and fostering a culture where everyone can contribute ideas is a priority. Long-term success depends as much on our team as it does on our products. We are also strengthening our global presence, building partnerships and expanding into new markets. Seeing our equipment used on projects around the world is something I find incredibly rewarding. The combination of technical innovation, global collaboration and team development makes this an exciting period for both the company and the wider industry.
