Business View Magazine | September 2019

46 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE SEPTEMBER 2019 specifically in the Gulf States of the Middle East. Recently, Business View Magazine spoke with General Manager, Scott Salisbury, to find out more about the company’s operations. The following is an edited transcript of that conversation. BVM: What industries does Bradley Lifting Corporation mainly serve? Salisbury: “The bulk of our customer base, and core portion of our business, is in the aluminum industry and we’ve been largely involved with some of the major players in aluminum production, helping them develop their processes and tailoring their material handling to suit their production needs for many years. We also do a fair amount of steel, as well; so, it’s about 60 percent aluminum, 30 percent steel, and the other ten percent, miscellaneous. “And when I’m talking about aluminum, for example, I’m not talking about any one particular aspect of it. I’m talking end-to-end. So, for the aluminum industry, we’re involved from the front end process, the handling of the production of raw materials that are consumed in the smelting process, smelting maintenance equipment, the casting equipment, the rolling equipment, and the downstream processes. It’s an end-to-end offering of solutions. The same goes for the steel industry, from the handling of the electrodes that are used in steel production, some of the casting and forging operations, down to the handling of finished product, whether it be slats or finished coils. In these industries, we’re integrated into the whole process and provide solutions end-to-end.” BVM: What sets Bradley Lifting apart from the competition? Salisbury: “I think the thing that sets us apart is not only our expertise - and we’ve worked closely with a lot of the companies in these industries to develop solutions – but the fact that, to this day, we’ve remained very customer-focused.
