A brief introduction to CFS

Quality, Innovation, Support
These three words are at the heart of everything CFS
provides to the lift industry, and remain as true today
as when the business was first founded back in 2000
by Tim Chart.
The goal of CFS is simple: provide an enhanced level of
service within the existing market, while always deliver
cost-effective, technically brilliant solutions that resolve
any application problem. Making this goal a reality is only
possible through the drive, passion and commitment of
the whole CFS team, who for over a decade have held
the companys philosophy true:

rail fixings, plus the newly created S-Fix secure bolt

fixing. However, the company is forever pushing
to develop new products to meet the needs of an
ever-changing industry. Product quality is also key to
CFS continued success, which is why the company
is proud to be ISO 9001 certified.
