About Us
Since Joseph Stannah first opened the doors for business in London back in 1867 Stannah has remained a British, family-owned business. Over 140 years later, our business is managed by Patrick and Jon Stannah, Joseph’s great grandchildren.
In 1975 Stannah added the stairlifts to the range and in 2011 produced the 500,000th, commemorated with a visit from HRH The Prince of Wales – a very proud day for all of us at Stannah.

Our company is built on the ideals and ethics of British family values. This means that we will always act with integrity, no matter what the situation. We are members of the British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA), and rigorously adhere to their trading standards approved code of conduct to act in an honest, responsible and ethical way. We are also proud to be the first and only stairlift manufacturer to be members of Buy with Confidence, a trading standards scheme adopted by over 50 local authorities across the country – so you can have complete confidence in us, our products and our service.

It is no wonder we were so honoured to receive this accreditation.
