Winner of the National Apprenticeship Award, Liebherr-Great Britain Ltd. in Biggleswade has reason to be proud! The Awards, run by the National Apprenticeship Service, recognise excellence in two areas: businesses that grow their own talent with apprentices and apprentices who have made a significant contribution to their workplaces.
“We are continually expanding and apprenticeships are now an integral part of the strategy, identifying enthusiastic individuals that can be developed from the ground up and are real assets to the company, bringing productivity, motivation and cost efficiencies,” says Lee Mason, Apprentice Programme Manager at Liebherr-Great Britain Ltd., at the ceremony.
The team from Liebherr was not only presented with the prestigious Award but also mentioned on the prestigious Top 100 Apprenticeship Employer list. High recognition indeed as this list, compiled annually by the National Apprenticeship Service and sponsored by City & Guilds, concentrates on identifying excellence in businesses that employ apprentices.

Liebherr is increasing the overall service life of its Fibre ropes from 14 to 16 years, with the decisive period of use rising to up to 12 years. This is based on multi-year ageing trials on test rigs and analyses of ropes already in field. The new ruling applies automatically to all new ropes and those already in the field. This step forms part of Liebherr's ongoing path towards establishing Fibre technology as the new standard in the tower crane market.
