Amalgamated Lifts Limited proudly announce their Royal Warrant Appointment to His Majesty King Charles III
 Amalgamated Lifts Limited proudly announce their Amalgamated Lifts joins approximately 600 companies who exclusively hold this title and are one of only three lift companies to hold this prestigious accolade. This appointment is an honour and demonstration of our positioning in the UK Lift Industry providing our services to the Royal Households. We also join the exclusive Royal Warrant Holders Association, and furthermore, we have received approval to display the Royal Coat of Arms alongside our branding and proudly intend to do so. This prestigious endorsement is a reflection on the companies:
MD John Brand, set his sights on becoming a Royal Warrant holder when producing Amalgamated Lifts’ strategic vision document in 2015/16. Within 2 years we were awarded our first Royal appointment with a project at Windsor Castle. Within 5 years, the maintenance contract for the Royal Households followed. The goal was to demonstrate AL’s quality and capabilities by obtaining such a unique and prestigious endorsement. The award of our Royal Warrant is a testament to John, our leader and the resilient team he has built around him to gain such a high accolade.  John Brand says, “Of all the achievements in our 38 year history, this is undoubtedly the most prestigious. It is an exceptional honour to be awarded the Royal Warrant and one we are immensely proud to hold. We extend our sincere thanks to His Majesty The King for this recognition and to all those within the Royal Household we have had the privilege of working with over the years. This accolade reflects our unwavering commitment to delivering quality safely, underpinned by ethical and sustainable practices. I congratulate our fantastic team for the achievement of this honour, which is testament to the professionalism and dedication shown amongst our people. We look forward to proudly displaying the Royal Coat of Arms alongside our logo and continuing to uphold the excellent standards in everything that we do.” A special thank you and recognition goes to Katie Jukes, Terri Webb, and Joshua Wilson for the successful Royal Warrant application bid, the Service Team who delivered the outstanding maintenance contract and the Construction Team who continue to deliver lift modernisation, and new installation works for the Royal Households. We are particularly proud and feel very privileged of the relationship we have developed with the Royal Households over the past eight years. Working on landmark buildings, such as Buckingham Palace, St James’s Palace, Kensington Palace, Clarence House, Marlborough House, and Windsor Castle has been an absolute honour. Our company has supported the Royal Household during some of the most monumental and historical occasions in recent years such as:
  The history of the Royal Warrant can be traced back to medieval times, when competition for Royal favour was intense and the Monarch had the pick of the country’s best tradespeople. By the 15th century, the Lord Chamberlain, as head of the Royal Household, formally appointed tradespeople with a Royal Warrant of Appointment – a practice that continues to this day. Royal warrants are only granted to individuals or companies that have made a continuing and significant supply of goods and or/services over a minimum trading period, and successfully pass the strict and vigorous application process. This truly is a momentous achievement that our company can feel proud of.   |
School Careers Fair Event 2026
It is always a pleasure to attend Primary School Career Fairs in our local community. Representing our industry sector and hopefully inspiring the next generation of engineers, technicians, office staff, etc. 🛠💻
Receiving the following feedback this morning on email from the Assistant Principal makes it all worthwhile;
“They showed great curiosity and enthusiasm as they explored the different job roles and career pathways you introduced to them, engaging in purposeful conversations. The wide range of job opportunities shared on the day opened their eyes to a future full of exciting possibilities, and that was made possible because of you. Your willingness to share your knowledge, experiences, and insights made a meaningful impact and helped bring learning to life in a way that simply isn’t possible in the classroom alone”
We had a great time and we look forward to future opportunities to do similar volunteering work. 🤝
Red Nose Day
The team came together and got creative, designing their own noses and feasting on cakes to successfully raise over £100 in support of Comic Relief.
Proof that serious fundraising doesn’t always require serious faces!
Lambeth – Match My Project – Launch Event
We were honoured on the 18th March 2026 to be in attendance of the London Borough of Lambeth – Match My Project – Partnership Launch Event. It was a great opportunity to learn about the local charities in the area and a real way for us to give back to the community.
As part of our commitment to giving back, we were pleased to donate 100+ pairs of cargo trousers and shorts to various charities to further their noble works, whether it be in local gardening or helping young people enter work with the suitable attire.
We look forward to seeing how Match My Project will make a difference in the way we make social value contributions. Thank you to Barry Bugden and Be Lambeth for having us, we look forward to the next event.
