Lifting and Spreader Beams
Fixed and adjustable beams for long, wide or unbalanced loads, sized to the crane's hook approach and headroom.
For below-the-hook manufacturers
Grow Your Below-the-Hook Equipment Business in Canada
You build the lifting device. Arvanta develops the Canadian crane companies, rigging distributors, EPCs and industrial end users that specify it.
You manufacture the product. Arvanta helps develop the Canadian market around it.
Arvanta understands how lifting beams, spreaders, coil lifters, C-hooks, tongs and clamps are specified, applied and bought in Canada.
We build the distributor, crane-company and EPC channel, support applications and quotations, and give manufacturers a knowledgeable local commercial presence.

How Arvanta Works
Market development, not engineering or manufacturing
Arvanta is a market-development and manufacturers’ representative firm. Arvanta does not manufacture lifting equipment and does not provide engineering services. Arvanta builds distributor, integrator, crane-company and direct industrial routes to market for the manufacturers it represents.
Arvanta coordinates the application discussion between the customer, channel partner and manufacturer so the proposed device is aligned with the load, duty cycle, crane and operating environment. Capacity, design and suitability remain the responsibility of the manufacturer and the engineer of record.
