The emerging brand ELL™ made its official global debut at Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2026 in Barcelona, Spain (held at Fira Barcelona Gran Via, Hall 6, Stand 6R300, from February 3 to 6). The brand launched the UC1 series—the industry’s first smart electric chain hoist certified to the EN 17206 standard—designed specifically for specialized lifting applications such as stage performances and event installations, with a focus on combining lifting safety with digital system integration. Juan José Vila, the company’s leader, stated that the team’s goal is not merely to manufacture a new hoist, but to provide a complete, compliant system solution. To this end, the company has established a dedicated manufacturing facility in Valencia, Spain, combining engineering R&D capabilities with logistical flexibility to meet the demands of the EU and UK markets.
The brand’s product roadmap reveals plans to launch models with integrated load cells in 2026, enabling comprehensive load recording and real-time monitoring, followed by higher-capacity models in 2027 to support heavy-duty lifting requirements for large-scale production projects.
