To manufacture robust, safe and maintainable goods hoists that continue performing reliably under demanding conditions.
To be South Africa’s most trusted manufacturer of goods hoists and related entrances, recognised for durability, compliance, engineering quality and long-term product support.
Wesant Manufacturing was established in Durban in 1995. Over more than 30 years, the company has manufactured nearly 1,500 goods hoists and developed extensive experience in the design and production of goods-only lifting equipment.
Today, goods hoists represent the vast majority of Wesant’s business. We also manufacture goods-hoist landing gates, picket car gates and dumbwaiters, and support equipment in the field with replacement components and engineering expertise. Wesant supplies a range of independent lift installation and maintenance companies throughout South Africa and is not tied to a single installer.
