About Gorbel

Gorbel® protects the things that matter most to you. With a portfolio of overhead solutions and warehouse solutions, we have products to enhance productivity, profitability and safety throughout your plant, warehouse, and distribution center.

Founded in 1977, Gorbel® started as a small company in Western NY and has now expanded to over 800 employees, with manufacturing locations in NY, AL, AZ, and Canada.

Whether you’re lifting 50 lbs or 40 ton, Gorbel® floor, wall, and ceiling mounted cranes keep you moving. Our Work Station and Jib Crane solutions offer numerous ergonomic benefits, and our Cleveland Tramrail® Patented Track line continues to be the benchmark by which all other heavy-duty cranes are measured.

Our G-Force® and Easy Arm® Intelligent Lifting Devices fill the void between traditional lifting devices and completely automated solutions while reducing strain on workers. They enable operators to lift and maneuver loads naturally, as if the devices were an extension of their arms, and provide a combination of pinpoint precision and blazing speeds that hoists and air balancers can’t offer. Looking for a more traditional lifting solution? Our GS Series Electric Chain Hoists, in capacities from 1/8 ton to 5 ton, are the perfect complement to your Gorbel® crane.

OSHA requires engineered fall protection for all workers working at elevations of 4’ or more. Our Tether Track™ Overhead Fall Protection provides workers with a high degree of mobility and freedom, while preventing falls to lower levels.

Our Destuff-it™ and Restuff-it™ products are portable ergonomic systems that help your workers be safer and more efficient when manually handling floor-loaded product in containers and trailers.

Focused on making material handling in-the-can safer and faster for employees, the Destuff-it™ enables operators to achieve more throughput and greater handling capacity with less fatigue and muscle strain because of optimal positioning to the box wall.
