"Gorbel Inc., a Victor, NY-based manufacturer of material handling and fall protection equipment, is celebrating 40 years of manufacturing excellence this year," said a company spokesperson. It recently marked the occasion with a large celebration for employees, families and special guests at the Victor headquarters.
Gorbel was founded by Clarkson graduate Dave Reh in 1977 as a manufacturer of I-Beam Jib Cranes. Over the years, the company expanded its product line and outgrew its original location in Fairport, NY. Gorbel moved to its current headquarters in Victor in 1990. In 2003, Dave's son, Brian, became President of Gorbel.
"On behalf of everyone at Gorbel, we are grateful to build upon the foundation that my father, Dave Reh, set in place 40 years ago when he took the entrepreneurial leap to start Gorbel," said Brian Reh. "Our team has been lucky to have such incredible employees and families of employees throughout the journey. From our humble roots in 1977 to the 400+ global employees who call Gorbel home today, every ounce of our success points to the values, teamwork and growth-oriented culture that we all share. Our mission is to improve people's lives and I can not wait to see Gorbel's positive impacts in the world in the years to come."
The Gorbel product line now includes Work Station Cranes, Gantry Cranes, Cleveland Tramrail Patented Track Cranes, Tether Track Rigid Rail Fall Protection Anchor Systems and G-Force Intelligent Lifting Devices. In 2015, Gorbel expanded beyond the industrial realm by applying their G-Force lifting technology to the medical rehabilitation world with its SafeGait line of rehab solutions, including the SafeGait 360 Balance and Mobility Trainer, the SafeGait EMBRACE Rehabilitation Harness and the SafeGait ACTIVE Dynamic Mobility Trainer.
