Lampson International has been a worldwide leader in the Heavy Lift and Transport industry for over 50 years. Originally started as a small drayage company they quickly grew into one of the most innovative and respected providers of equipment and full service rigging services in the United States and abroad.

The introduction of the Lampson Crawler Transporter in the early 1970s laid the groundwork for what has become the most versatile heavy lift system on the market today the Lampson Transi-Lift Mobile Crane. Crawler Transporters are designed for safe, efficient movement of heavy outsize cargo on roads whose surfaces are not conducive to rubber tired transport methods. These track driven transporters are equipped with individual side-to-side drive trains which allow unmatched maneuverability in congested areas. Manufactured in capacities from 400 to 4000 US tons with draw bar pull values exceeding 2 million pounds the Lampson Crawler Transporter is a true workhorse of the industry.

As the need for cranes with larger capacities, higher hook heights and increased lift radii were required Neil F. Lampson proposed the construction of a 1000 US ton lift crane that not only had the needed capacity but retained all the functionality of a conventional mobile crane. In 1978 Neil F. Lampson, Inc. engineered, manufactured, assembled and tested the first Lampson Transi-Lift for use at a nuclear construction site in the United States. Using the, already industry tested Crawler Transporter as a mobile foundation and equipped with multi-drum hoists the Transi-Lift started work on a nuclear project and exceeded all expectations.

Since the introduction of the first Transi-Lift Lampson International has continued to improve upon its original design. Transi-Lifts are now available in several models ranging from 350 US tons to 2600 US tons. Innovations in design and materials have not only accommodated higher capacities but have had the added benefit of reducing assembly times and transportation costs.

In addition to the Crawler Transporters and the Transi-Lift Mobile Crane Lampson International fields a fleet of 350 major pieces of equipment ranging from RT and AT hydraulic cranes, lattice boom truck cranes, conventional crawler cranes including Manitowoc 999, 2250 and 18000 models to several lines of both towable and self-propelled platform trailers. These cranes are rented to the general construction industry both operated and maintained and under bare lease agreements.

As an adjunct to its proprietary lift and transport equipment manufacturing capabilities Lampson International also designs and builds custom heavy lift rigging gear for its own use and for sale to the construction industry. Lampson its manufacturing capabilities with its vast experience in heavy rigging engineering to offer lift and transport solutions to a wide variety of clients.
